Mike Cadden will next week join Marie Curie as Interim Chief Technology Officer.
In a LinkedIn post, he said: “The more eagle eyed amongst you may have noticed that the "open to work" banner has gone. I can now announce that as of Monday, 11th September, I will be joining CEO Matthew Reed and his amazing leadership team at Marie Curie as Interim Chief Technology Officer.”
He added: “As I'm sure everyone will be aware, this is an amazing organisation that does such important work in palliative care, where technology plays a key role in supporting their critical services and as such Marie Curie's mission means so much to me personally, so whilst this is a slight deviation for me, I'm so excited and honoured to be taking up this critical role.”
