TTEC Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: TTEC) announced Chris Brown as president of TTEC Digital, effective immediately. Brown replaces Dave Seybold, who will step down as CEO and remain with the company through April 30, 2026, to facilitate the leadership transition.

Brown will report directly to TTEC Chairman and CEO Ken Tuchman and will oversee TTEC Digital's global strategy, profit and loss management, and operational execution. He joined TTEC in 2015 and most recently served as Chief of Staff to the Chairman and CEO, leading corporate development and strategic partnerships.

"Chris is the ideal leader to drive TTEC Digital into its next chapter, providing both continuity and a growth mindset," Tuchman said in the press release. "For over a decade, Chris has played a central role at TTEC Digital, working with its key leaders and developing the strategic technology partnerships that define the business today."

Before joining TTEC, Brown spent over two decades advising technology and services firms on mergers and acquisitions, capital markets, investor relations, and strategic transformation. His background includes senior leadership roles in investment banking at UBS and management consulting at Mercer. He also served as a key executive at Liquid Robotics, an AI-enabled ocean drone company that was acquired by Boeing.

Brown holds an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and serves on the Board of Directors of Percepta, a customer experience services provider for the automotive industry in partnership with Ford Motor Company.

"I am honored to lead this world-class team at a time of such immense opportunity," Brown said. "TTEC Digital has something genuinely special — the ability to bring together world-class talent, marquee technology partnerships, deep AI and data expertise, and global CX delivery at scale."

The company thanked Seybold for his three years of leadership, during which he established a unified TTEC Digital brand and aligned teams around an AI-forward vision.
