The National Broadband Network Company has nabbed Qantas's former executive general manager of human resources, Kevin Brown.
Outgoing Qantas CEO Geoff Dixon today expressed confidence in the capacity of the airline's chief information officer Jamila Gordon to lead its IT strategy, in the wake of the resignation of IT-savvy CFO Peter Gregg this week.
Acquisitions and mergers by the industry's US powerbrokers continued at pace throughout 2006, but locally, offshoring and fibre-optic broadband networks provided the biggest talking points.
Qantas has awarded Indian outsourcer Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) the lion's share of AU$191 million in contracts for its Applications Services and Transformation (AST) outsourcing program.
Qantas will cull 340 technology jobs over the next 15 months as it offshores applications support and maintenance to Indian services companies Satyam and Tata Consulting.
