PHILIPSBURG--Glen Carty has tendered his resignation as Chief Executive Officer of United Telecommunications Services (UTS) Eastern Caribbean and will be leaving the company to focus solely on Social and Health Insurances SZV.
Carty, who currently serves as SZV Director, told The Daily Herald on Thursday that he had resigned from UTS last month, effective at the end of September.
Carty said his contract with SZV has been renewed for five years. The new contract was signed on June 14, after negotiations of more than two months. “The information that has been spread on social media, as usual, is totally incorrect. It is totally thrown out of proportion and is totally incorrect,” Carty said.
Carty officially informed UTS staff of his resignation on Thursday morning. Carty has been at UTS since November 1, 2000, has worked with his team to grow the company and has secured a number of accomplishments for the company over the years. When asked what some of his major accomplishments at UTS were, he said securing the mobile concession and launching Chippie in 2003.
Carty said he has been working alongside a “fantastic” team at UTS Eastern Caribbean and is very happy to have had the opportunity to work with the team and for the opportunity at UTS.
Asked what his top two plans are for SZV, Carty said to improve service with his team at the insurance service provider and to implement automation to be able to get proper information for making management decisions. He also plans to work with other stakeholders to restructure health care in the country.
Carty, who was in attendance at the public plenary session of Parliament on the sale of UTS shares on Thursday, was thanked by at least two MPs during the first part of the meeting for his service at UTS and was wished the best in his endeavours at SZV.
