Roary Stasko appointed head of Telstra International

Telstra’s finance and strategy executive director Roary Stasko has been appointed as the new CEO of Telstra’s International business, starting 1 July.

“Roary is a proven leader within Telstra, having spent more than five years at the business in a variety of different roles including head of corporate strategy as well as head of finance for Telstra’s consumer and small business function,”  said Telstra Enterprise Group executive David Burns.

“He is the right person to lead Telstra International as the business continues its exciting growth trajectory.”

Burns added that Stasko’s background in emerging markets would be invaluable in his new role.

Stasko will start in the role on 1 July to ensure a smooth transition with current head of telstra international Oliver Camplin-Warner, who will be moving to head up the Telstra Purple business in the new financial year.

“Telstra International has a strong team culture, an incredible focus on its customers and a well-established position in the market. I’m excited to join the international team to build on all the hard work of Oliver and the team, and to lead the business in its next phase of growth,” Stasko said.

Stasko will continue to hold his position on the Digicel Pacific Board, and will be based out of San Francisco.
