Welcoming our new CEO, Brett Shepherd.

We are delighted to announce that we have appointed Brett Shepherd as our new Chief Executive Officer. Brett will join in the coming weeks and head up our new management team to further our ambition of levelling up previously underserviced communities.

With more than 12 years in senior positions at network infrastructure and telecoms businesses, including as Managing Director of LilaConnect, and previously Chief Operating Officer of Gigaclear, Brett will bring his valuable experience leading Alt-Nets and building out full-fibre networks across urban and rural communities.

Brett Shepherd, incoming CEO, commented: “I am delighted to be joining LightSpeed. I’ve been impressed with the company’s achievements to date, and it’s an exciting opportunity to work with a great team to bring the latest full-fibre technology to more homes and businesses across the region, including previously underserved rural areas.

LightSpeed delivers the whole package to the market; future-proof technology with market-leading sustainability and energy efficiency standards backed up with excellent customer support, a clear and simple product offering and competitive pricing. I believe we bring the gold standard of full fibre to our customers, and I can’t wait to get started.”
