Capco appoints new head of digital

Capco has appointed Alla Gancz, a former digital transformation lead at Infosys, as head of digital for the UK.

The financial technology and management consultancy said Gancz would be instrumental in expanding the company’s practice in digital transformation programmes and enterprise-wide strategic engagements in the financial services sector.

Gancz was the European digital transformation lead for financial services at Infosys. She previously held leadership roles at Wipro Digital, Genworth Financial, Mastercard and American Express.

Her specific areas of focus include redesigning the customer experience and end-to-end digitalisation through better use of emerging technologies.

Mike Ethelston, UK managing partner at Capco, said: “Alla’s experience working with business and technology stakeholders to transform customer experiences and reinvent operating models will be invaluable, both as we build on the success of our UK digital practice and, crucially, as we help our clients navigate through the present global crisis and reshape their businesses in readiness for the post-pandemic ‘new normal.’

“The sudden enforced shift to a virtual marketplace means that the digital aspirations of financial institutions have never been more urgent or business critical," he continued. "Working closely with their colleagues across our different domain practices, our digital team can provide the tools, support and strategic guidance that firms need to reorient their businesses and build for the future.”
