    “Her exceptional track record in business transformation, strategic leadership and deep expertise across multiple industries aligns with NTT Data’s vision to offer industry-specific end-to-end solutions, complementing our existing strength in systems integration,” said NTT Data CEO for the Middle East and Africa Alan Turnley-Jones in the statement.

    This appointment reflects our commitment to providing dedicated leadership in key growth markets

    Naidoo has spent most of her career in consulting, having spent 21 years at Accenture – 10 of which were as South African MD. In her most recent role, she served as an independent digital and business transformation advisor, providing advisory services to various organisations across Africa.

    Naidoo holds a BSc (hons) in electrical and electronics engineering from Wits University.

    “This appointment reflects our commitment to providing dedicated leadership in key growth markets, while I focus on our strategic expansion across the Middle East and Africa region,” said Turnley-Jones.  – © 2025 NewsCentral Media
