GARRY WHITE
Service and Operations Director

Garry has been at BT Media & Broadcast since its inception in 2004, having worked within a broadcast environment for 15 years.

Garry’s role sees him oversee the organisation’s global operations and manage its global media network and digital media solutions, ensuring that everything BT Media and Broadcast does is optimised and focused firmly on results for the customer.

He works closely with customers to deliver an end-to-end service to major UK broadcasters including ITV and BSkyB as well as a range of international companies.

On the competition:
“In this industry we are absolutely as good as anyone and better than most.  There are niche specialists in digital media solutions, but we have unrivalled breadth of experience and leadership.  The company that differentiates itself with regard to service will prosper."

On service:
“I think it is vital to be passionate about service.  And that means never being scared of being open with a customer about a problem.  Honesty goes a long way and problems are challenges to show how good you are.”

On ambition:
“I would like to see the strategy we are putting in place right now bear fruit.  This part of my career is the most demanding – and the most exciting – I’ve ever had.”

Garry has worked at BT for 35 years, having started out as an engineer and working his way up and through the management chain.

Once he moved into the broadcast environment he remained focused on the service and operations side of the business, becoming one of the company’s experts in broadcast solutions.

In the words of his peers, what Garry doesn’t know about the subject isn’t worth knowing.

Garry’s career has seen him cover a range of exciting sports events in the UK, Europe and globally, including European and world football tournaments.

Garry enjoys cycling and long walks.  He is a fan of rugby and, in particular, London Wasps and England.
