Andrew Jordan further strengthens Eutelsat’s management team

Eutelsat Communications announces that Andrew Jordan, previously CEO of Eutelsat Asia, has joined Eutelsat’s Executive Committee. Based in Paris, Andrew will supervise the Group’s growth strategy in Asia and drive strategic projects. Ken Loke, previously Chief Commercial Officer of Eutelsat Asia, has assumed the post of Chief Executive Officer of Eutelsat Asia, based in Singapore.

Andrew Jordan joined Eutelsat following the acquisition in 2012 of the GE-23 satellite (renamed EUTELSAT 172A). He is a seasoned executive in the satellite, broadcast and telecommunications sector, with over 25 years experience in spearheading businesses, building client relationships and developing joint venture projects in Europe, Asia and Australia.

Michel de Rosen, CEO of Eutelsat, commented: “Andrew’s record as a longstanding industry professional further buttresses the broad range of skills assembled in our Executive Committee. We were delighted he accepted to join Eutelsat after we acquired EUTELSAT 172A last year, not only because of his extensive knowledge of Asia Pacific markets but also for his overall insight of the trends shaping the satellite business.”

Andrew holds Irish and Australian citizenships. He is a graduate of the School of Oriental and African Studies, London University, and speaks fluent Mandarin. He is 53 years old.
