nbn CEO Bill Morrow has announced the appointment of Peter Ryan as the new chief network engineering officer, effective immediately.

Ryan, who joined nbn in early 2013 and has been acting in the role since October, will be a member of the executive committee and report to the CEO.

He will be responsible for continuing to drive engineering, design and network deployment activities for the nbn.

Since arriving at nbn, Ryan was accountable for the national delivery of the transit and fixed wireless networks before moving into an executive general manager role in February 2014 when he was responsible for the detailed design, construction and deployment of nbn’s regional fixed line network.

Prior to nbn, Peter Ryan worked at Vodafone for 15 years in Australia, Africa and the UK, and Maunsell Australia Pty Ltd across roles involved in network engineering, technology deployment and service operations.

“Peter is a global veteran of the telco industry and has built a sound knowledge of the business in his previous role of executive general manager, regional deployment,” said Morrow.

“His expertise is complemented by his strong relationships with the team, both in-house and in our extended team within the delivery partner network. He brings fresh eyes to the role to pair with his experience in the network build.”

Morrow said that Ryan will play a key role on the executive team driving exponential network growth and integration across the multitechnology mix on one of the largest infrastructure projects ever seen in Australia.
