Wilson brings more than 35 years'
experience in all aspects of IT services
Third senior leadership addition under new
offering-led operating model highlights company's focus on
financial growth and expansion
ASHBURN,
Va., Oct. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - DXC Technology
(NYSE: DXC) announced that Andrew
Wilson has been appointed Executive Vice President and
Global Lead, Modern Workplace effective October 1, 2023, reporting directly to DXC
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Mike Salvino. Wilson is the third high-profile
executive to join the company, along with Howard Boville and Rob
Del Bene, since DXC implemented its offering-led operating
model in April. Under the new model, DXC now has highly
experienced executives leading each of the company's six global
offerings, positioning it for growth and expansion of margin,
earnings per share and free cash flow.
"We are pleased to welcome Andrew to DXC. He will be an
excellent addition to the leadership team and is the right person
to run our Modern Workplace offering," said Salvino. "I worked with
Andrew closely at Accenture for many years, and he is a
results-driven leader with deep experience managing
multi-billion-dollar businesses for global companies. He has a
track record of attracting industry talent, infusing innovation,
and building relationships with customers and ecosystem partners.
All of this adds up to Andrew having a proven ability to develop
and execute highly effective growth strategies, which fits
perfectly with our focus at DXC."
Wilson has held senior leadership positions at some of the
biggest and most well-respected brands in the technology industry.
Most recently, he served as Microsoft's Chief Digital Officer
leading deep transformations and running mission critical systems.
Prior to that, Wilson served as Chief Information Officer at
Accenture for seven years where he ensured the company was at the
forefront of digital innovation. Previously, Wilson was the Chief
Executive Officer of GE Capital IT Solutions.
"I'm honored and excited to join DXC's leadership team at a
moment when the company is poised to move from a focus on stability
to growth," said Wilson. "I have watched the progress DXC has made
under Mike's leadership around its financial stability, culture,
customer delivery focus and governance, and it is very clear to me
the company is now poised to deliver on its potential. I look
forward to leveraging my expertise and relationships to help DXC
grow."
Wilson joins Howard Boville,
DXC's Global Lead, Applications Services and Artificial
Intelligence, and Chris Drumgoole,
DXC's Global Lead, Cloud Infrastructure & ITO, as the third
former Fortune 500 CIO/CTO now leading offerings that have
traditionally represented about 70% of DXC's total revenue but have
more recently fallen below the company's expectations.
"With Andrew's appointment, the highly experienced leadership
team under our new operating model is now set and will lead us from
stability, which has been our focus the past few years, to future
growth and expansion," said Salvino. "I believe this is the
most talented team that DXC has ever had, led by some of the best
minds and proven operators in the IT services industry."
