Cogan will also work closely with the wider organisation to ensure Colt delivers on its vision of transforming the way the world works through the power of Connectivity , the company said.

Fostering strong customer relationships

“In her time with Colt, Paula’s achievements have been underpinned by her ability to foster strong relationships with customers and partners, while remaining focuses on leading and transforming our teams to deliver sales excellence. Having worked closely with Paula throughout my time within the CCO function, I know she will continue to deliver excellent results and further support the team as they continue to deliver for our customers,” said Keri Gilder.
