CenturyLink has appointed Richard Warley as managing director for its Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) operations. Warley’s responsibilities in this role include developing sales strategy, driving revenue growth and owning client relationships, as well as directing overall CenturyLink business in EMEA.

Warley joins CenturyLink from IPsoft, a provider of autonomic and cognitive solutions, where he held the position of chief executive officer.

“I believe CenturyLink has the most ambitious vision and the most comprehensive set of capabilities of any global hybrid cloud provider,” Warley said. “Our portfolio includes a global fiber network and data centre footprint, managed services capabilities and a public cloud that rivals any other in the market, all delivered through a single point of contact. The breadth of services offered is a market-winning combination for current and future CenturyLink customers.”
