THE person in charge of Singapore Post's operational transformation will be resigning from the company.
In a filing to the Singapore Exchange on Tuesday, SingPost said that group chief operating officer (COO) Sacha Hower, 38, will step down from his post with effect from Aug 26 to pursue "new opportunities overseas".
In a restructuring exercise that was announced in November last year, SingPost had said that Dr Hower was responsible for the operational transformation of the group.
He led its operations in Singapore and in the region under Quantium Solutions - the international arm for the SingPost's e-commerce logistics business.
Dr Hower was appointed as COO on Jan 3, 2012. Before this, he was with McKinsey & Company in Dusseldorf, Germany.
His resignation follows in the wake of other recent high-profile departures from the company in recent months.
