Serco Group plc ('Serco' or 'the Group'), the international
service company, is pleased to announce the appointment of David J.
Dacquino as Chief Executive Officer of the Americas division, which
in 2016 had revenue of GBP0.7bn and approximately 8,000 employees.
The appointment follows the announcement in February that Dan Allen
had informed the business of his intention to retire from this role
in mid-2017.
Dave currently leads Serco Americas' Defence business, and will
take on Dan's responsibilities over the coming weeks, including
joining the Group's Executive Committee. Dave joined Serco in 2015,
bringing deep knowledge and experience from across the defence,
aeronautics, logistics and technical services industries. Before
Serco, Dave served as President and CEO of SkyLink, a leading
aviation and logistics service provider with international
operations in over 60 countries. Previous roles included: CEO for
the North America operations of VT Group, a technology integrator
with a strong focus on C4ISR, transportation, logistics and
facilities management; Vice President and lead executive of
Raytheon Technical Services Company's integrated support solutions
division; and an extensive career at Lockheed Martin, where he
ultimately held the position of Vice President and General Manager
of logistic services and oversaw more than 3,500 personnel at 75
locations worldwide.
Rupert Soames, Serco Group Chief Executive, said: "I am
delighted that Dave Dacquino will be succeeding Dan Allen in
leading our Americas division. Dave has made an excellent job of
transforming our Defence business in the region over the last two
years, and it now has a substantial pipeline of new bid
opportunities. I am also grateful to Dan, who since 2013 has
steered the division through some choppy waters, and we wish him a
happy retirement."
