Former Motorola executive Daniel Moloney is returning to the US vendor after leaving in February to join electronic components manufacturer Technitrol, where he was president and CEO.
Moloney, who had previously headed up Motorola’s Home and Networks Mobility business, will this time around become president of Motorola Mobility. There, he will prepare the TV set-top box, media server and content-sharing-device division for its launch as an independent, publicly traded company.
He will take up the role at the beginning of September, reporting to Motorola co-CEO Sanjay Jha, Motorola Mobility’s CEO.
Jha said: “I am delighted that Dan is re-joining Motorola Mobility. He is a seasoned leader with more than 25 years of industry experience.
“Dan’s operational expertise, strategic orientation and strong customer relationships will help continue to position Motorola Mobility for the convergence of mobility, media, consumer computing and the mobile Internet.”
Reuters reports that Moloney decided to return to Motorola because the new position offered more responsibilities than his previous role with Motorola’s Home and Networks Mobility unit.
