Tesco CIO steps down

Tesco group IT director Colin Cobain will leave at the end of November after six years with the retailer.

A high profile CIO (recently voted CIO of the year at the fifth annual CNET Networks UK Business Technology awards), Cobain is known as the man behind the “Tesco in a box” systems and operating model that enabled Tesco’s ambitious global expansion successes, notably the opening of their first US stores earlier this month.

According to a Tesco spokesman: “Colin is seeking a new challenge outside Tesco and we’re thankful for his significant contribution to the IT infrastructure at Tesco and wish him well for the future.”
