“On behalf of the board, I am delighted to be welcoming someone of Jonathan’s calibre and experience to Datalex’s senior leadership team,” said non-executive chairman of Datalex, David Hargaden. “Given his past achievements across a variety of consumer-focused sectors, we see Jonathan as the ideal person to lead Datalex.”

Rockett said: “I am very excited to be joining Datalex, a market leader in airline retail technology. The ability to provide an innovative digital retail experience across the full customer journey for some of the largest airline brands, really appeals to me.

“I am looking forward to working with the team, as we lead Datalex into its next phase. Given my background in finance, technology and strategic partnerships, I aim to use a combination of the existing capabilities within Datalex and build some new ones to unlock future growth opportunities.”
