Telstra chief information officer Jeff Smith is to depart the telecommunications heavyweight, effective 31 March.
Telstra has unveiled a cost reduction strategy targeting savings of up to AU$800 million over the next three years, with information technology at the forefront of those plans.
The Labor Party has slammed the current regime for its lack of leadership in driving the telecommunications sector into a competitive market, adding that if it were to be elected this year, Telstra would have no choice but to drive its network at lower prices.
The Shadow Communications Minister, Stephen Smith, claims the cost of using a GSM mobile phone will increase as a result of a AU$120 million revenue slug in next Tuesday's Budget. >
Former Telstra CIO Jeff Smith has been appointed group executive, Information Technology, of the new financial giant created by the multi-billion dollar merger of insurers Suncorp and Promina.
In times of financial crisis, it's inevitable that companies reassess their financial plans.
The multi-billion dollar merger of local insurers Suncorp and Promina has raised some interest (to put it mildly) within the Australian community, as such things are wont to do.
Will Suncorp chief information officer Jeff Smith stick around if the bank's rapid decline in value due to the credit crisis lead to a fire sale of several of its key divisions?
The office of the Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts has backed Telstra's decision to use offshore software developers.
With a star-studded employment history including a stint as the chief information officer of Telstra, Jeff Smith is one of Australia's top-flight technology executives.
Voice over IP has reached some major milestones in 2008 in both the enterprise and consumer ends of the market but how long can traditional telcos continue to fight against this disruptive technology?
