After six years at the helm of Capgemini UK, Paul Margetts is moving to pastures new within the group and will become the CEO of Capgemini Asia-Pacific as from the 1st October. The vacancy created by this move has been filled by Rob Walker, who most recently served as President of Global Growth Markets at Cognizant.

Paul, who joined the company in 1992, has successfully presided over a c.60% increase in regional revenue during his time as UK MD. The territory was not only the fastest growing of all Capgemini’s geographic units in 2023, but also again the best performing region in terms of profitability (see here). He has been both a champion of the Group’s push towards Net Zero and a leader within Capgemini’s on its progress to increase inclusion and social value. He leaves large shoes to fill as he heads east.
