Atos SE named businessman Philippe Salle as its seventh chief executive officer in about three years as the troubled French IT company navigates its way through a restructuring with its creditors.
Salle will become CEO on Feb. 1 and was voted in as chairman on Monday, the Paris-based company said in a statement on Tuesday. He takes over from Jean-Pierre Mustier, who’d served in both roles since July when the previous CEO stepped down.
