MTN Group is pleased to announce the appointment of David Behr as Group Chief Enterprise Business Officer, reporting to the MTN Group Chief Commercial Officer, effective 1 July 2025.  In this role, David will lead the Group’s integrated Enterprise Business function, following the recent consolidation of Converged Solutions and the Group Enterprise Business Unit into a single, streamlined structure.

This development follows strategic work initiated earlier this year to streamline MTN’s commercial operations. The integration forms part of the Group’s broader ambition to drive Commercial Excellence by improving alignment across Go-To-Market channels and strengthening synergies across functions. It positions MTN to more effectively deliver comprehensive, end-to-end enterprise solutions, while expanding its capabilities as a systems integrator and provider of managed services.

Commenting on the appointment, Selorm Adadevoh, MTN Group Chief Commercial Officer, said: “We are excited to welcome David to this new role as we continue to transform our enterprise business for the future. With his experience and leadership, we are confident that MTN will be better positioned to deliver integrated, next-generation solutions that enable Africa’s progress.”

As Group Chief Enterprise Business Officer, David will oversee the growth and execution of MTN’s enterprise strategy, including voice and data services and next-generation solutions such as Internet of Things (IoT), Cyber Security, Unified Communications, and Cloud.

David brings over two decades of leadership experience in telecommunications and technology, having held senior roles across multiple geographies. Prior to this appointment, he served as CEO of MTN Converged Solutions, where he led portfolio transformation across key markets. His career also includes leadership roles as CEO of Liquid C2 and Cloudmania, as well as Group Chief Product Officer and Group Chief Digital Officer of Liquid Telecommunications.

He holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Harvard Business School and a Master of Engineering from the University of Bristol.

This appointment reflects MTN’s ongoing commitment to fostering Africa’s progress through technology, innovation, and inclusive growth.
