Yuen Kuan Moon is currently serving as a Director of the organisation and has also been serving as Singtel’s Group Chief Executive Officer since 1 January 2021. That same year, he embarked on a strategic reset of the Group’s businesses given the accelerated pace of digitalisation, due in part to the advent of the pandemic. Under his watch, Singtel has established 5G leadership and reinvigorated its core business while developing new growth engines by turning NCS into a regional tech services provider and forming a regional data centre business. He has also unlocked the latent value of Singtel’s assets to recycle capital into higher growth areas. While pursuing business growth, Moon has championed people and sustainability with renewed vigour to help build diverse and inclusive communities.

Moon began his career at Singtel in 1993 and held several leadership roles in Marketing, Business Development and Sales. Prior to his appointment as Group CEO, Moon was CEO, Consumer Singapore, a post he has held since June 2012. He was also responsible for driving the Group’s overall digital transformation as Group Chief Digital Officer from August 2018 to December 2020.

Moon sits on the boards of Singtel and its key subsidiaries and has been serving on the Board of Commissioners of Telkomsel since 2009. In addition, Moon is a Board member of Groupe Speciale Mobile Association (GSMA) and the Singapore Institute of Management. Moon is the Council Chair of Ngee Ann Polytechnic Council. He is also a member of Singapore’s Ministry of Communications and Information’s Digital Readiness Council and the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Payments Council.

Moon holds a First-Class Honours degree in Engineering from the University of Western Australia and a Master of Science in Management from Stanford University.
