Digicel has announced several appointments for its Dominican operations, following the recent moves in the island of its main competitor in the Caribbean, Cable & Wireless.


Nikima Noyer, a Dominican national, has been named CEO of the local operation, after having joined the company*as customer care operations manager for Digicel Play in 2014. Prior to that, she served in senior roles for Discover Dominica Authority, Rainforest Aerial Tram and the Dominica Hotel and Tourism Association.

“It’s an exciting time for Digicel Dominica having completed our multimillion investment in Digicel TV and most recently the addition of eight new mobile sites as part of our 4G network upgrades,” commented Noyer.

The appointment has been announced few days after Cable & Wireless, Digicel’s main competitor in the region, acquired the Dominica-based cableco Marpin*in a move to strengthen its cable TV operation in the island.

In line with Noyer's appointment, Digicel has also announced that Natalie Walsh has been promoted to head of commercial for Digicel Dominica with responsibility for both Digicel Play and its mobile operations.
