Turner’s new role will see him leading the sales, commercial and solution consulting teams at the company, with the overarching goal of continuing the company’s hybrid cloud and edge computing momentum.

He has proven experience in senior management roles across cloud, infrastructure and data centres gained at Claranet, T-Systems Internal and MCI, having led sales and commercial go-to-market strategies in the sector.

“Pulsant has the geographical spread and range of partnerships to deliver hybrid services to customers’ front doors, providing them with the agility and broad spectrum of capabilities they want, from a brand they can trust.

“I’m going to collaborate with the many highly talented people at Pulsant to drive growth even further and develop the range of opportunities in a highly dynamic market.”

Pulsant CEO Rob Coupland said: “Mark has a huge amount of experience he will use to capture the massive edge opportunity and build on our successes.

“I’m looking forward to the new energy and insight he will bring to this role that encompasses sales and related technical solutions teams, enabling us to bring an end-to-end focus to client opportunities delivered through our network of highly connected edge data centres and hybrid cloud platform.”
