A new horizon
It was a position he held for over a decade before, in 1987, he was appointed CEO of International Computers Limited (ICL) – a technology company acquired by Japanese firm Fujitsu in 2002.
Todd left ICL in 2000, just prior to its acquisition, and has held a number of executive and non-executive roles since then.
Most notably, he was Executive Chairman on the board of FFastFill – a risk management company – between 2002 and 2017.
He held a similar role as a Non-Executive Chairman with software company ION Trading from 2015 to 2017.
More recently, and outside the realm of financial services, Todd joined the board of WhaleSlide – an ad-free internet browser – as a Non-Executive Chairman.
“I really look forward to working with Horizon and using my experience to benefit the team in delivering the unrivalled offering its clients have come to expect.” He added: “I’m delighted to be working with Sylvain and the team and looking forward to helping the company develop and expand.”
