Steve Makin will step down as CFO of British fixed-line operator TalkTalk, following the company’s interim results on 11 November.
Makin, who joined the company as CFO in April 2013, has resigned “for purely personal reasons”, a TalkTalk spokeswoman said.
He will be replaced by Iain Torrens, currently group finance director of UK-based voice and electronic dealer broker ICAP. TalkTalk has yet to announce Torrens’ precise start date for his new role.
Commenting on Torrens’ appointment, TalkTalk CEO Dido Harding said: “Iain brings with him a wealth of experience, technical depth and outstanding leadership qualities.”
Torrens joined ICAP in 2006 as group treasurer, having previously worked in a number of senior financial roles for CP Ships and Cookson Group.
TalkTalk, which primarily offers fixed-line voice and broadband services, was set up by Carphone Warehouse almost 10 years ago, demerging in 2010 to become an independent company trading on the London Stock Exchange.
