Pavel Hlavinka worked at Vegacom since 1999. He markedly expanded the customer portfolio who used services in the information and communication technology sectors. Pavel Hlavinka also successfully restructured the entire company and helped it to grow. He directed, for example, the eastward expansion to the Ukrainian, Russian and Chinese markets.
“Thanks to Vodafone’s wide services offer and the creative and flexible team, all the groundwork is there to continue to increase our share of business customers in total sales. The really strong team and the ambitious goal are what I forward to and the reason I joined Vodafone,” Pavel Hlavinka says.
Business customers already make up a third of Vodafone Czech Republic’s revenue. Not long ago, Vodafone stepped into the corporate customer market with Vodafone OneNet. Vodafone currently has an attractive offer for all kinds of businesses, from the very smallest, to mid-size, all the way to the largest of corporations.
Before starting at Vegacom, Pavel Hlavinka worked five years at I&C Energo s.r.o. As the Commercial and Marketing Director, he, along with others, managed to increase the company’s revenue by 40%, from CZK 400 to 560 million.
He spent the early years of his career at ČEZ, where he joined after graduating from the Czech Technical University in Nuclear Engineering.
Pavel speaks English very well, is married and has an eleven-year old daughter. He likes to travel, play golf, squash, ride bikes and go hiking.
