“I saw this as a terrific opportunity to partner with a company that shares my values and ideas and is also passionate about its customers and team,” Ricciardo said.
“I’m definitely a Yes! man and am excited to work with Optus on a range of initiatives that motivate and inspire customers and crucially, staff.”
“Optus talks a lot about the speed of their network so I can’t wait to see just how fast their 5G network is.”
