New CEO to take the helm at Redcentric

Harrogate-based Redcentric, an IT managed services provider, has appointed Brian Woodford to the Board, effective from 3 February 2025.
Woodford will assume the role of CEO after an anticipated two-month transition period and a handover of responsibilities, with Peter Brotherton stepping down as CEO of the company.
A spokesman for the firm said: “We would like to extend our gratitude to Peter Brotherton for his exceptional leadership and invaluable contributions to the company’s growth and success.
“Peter has been instrumental in leading the company’s growth as a leading IT managed service provider and in establishing a highly successful UK data centre operation.
“We are pleased Peter has agreed, upon stepping down as CEO, to remain available to the business in a strategic advisory capacity through 30 June 2025.”
Brotherton said: “The business is now in a very different place to when I joined in November 2016 with solid foundations now in place for sustainable and profitable growth.
“It has been a privilege to work with so many talented professionals during my eight years at Redcentric and I am tremendously proud of what we achieved and delivered for our clients.
“My best wishes to Brian and the future success of Redcentric.”
Woodford has held senior positions at Capita, Tata Communications, Vodafone and Cable & Wireless.
He added: “I am impressed by the tremendous achievements the company has made under the leadership of Peter Brotherton and the dedicated efforts of Redcentric’s talented team.
“Building on this strong foundation, I look forward to collaborating with everyone across the organisation to continue innovating, expanding our market presence, and delivering value to our clients and shareholders.”
