From technology provider to strategic partner
Skyline Communications has made two leadership changes to strengthen its focus on helping customers shape their strategy and drive growth.
John Earnest has joined the company as Executive Account Director. He brings more than 15 years of experience in guiding media and broadband operators through large-scale digital and operational change across North and Latin America.
At the same time, Bruno Santos has been appointed VP Business Transformation. He will leverage his deep market insight in a strategic advisory role, helping senior decision-makers design and implement transformation strategies that drive agility, efficiency, and innovation.
“Operators everywhere are trying to move faster, but many find themselves held back by years of legacy systems and siloed processes,” said Bruno. “Our goal is to help them unify operations, optimize resources, and reinvent workflows in an increasingly software-defined and data-driven world, not just as technology providers, but as strategic partners. And with John on board, we’re even better positioned to guide our customers through these transformation journeys.
Guiding organizations amid rapid change
Service providers and broadcasters—once supported by predictable revenue streams and stable business models—have been under pressure lately. Rapid technology shifts, evolving consumer behavior, and competition from digital-native players are accelerating disruption across the industry. To remain competitive, these organizations are rethinking how they operate, deliver value, and grow. That means adopting new technologies, launching differentiated services, and testing new business models to unlock new revenue streams. This level of transformation demands focused leadership and strategic alignment to navigate complexity and drive sustainable growth.
“Skyline’s DataMiner xOps platform is unique in the way it supports organizations to evolve. It unifies operations and transforms data into actionable insights that drive innovation and growth,” said John. “It’s no longer just about cutting costs. Efficiency is built-in so that organizations can focus on strategic growth.”
With this strengthened leadership team, Skyline is reinforcing its commitment to the Americas and its role as a trusted advisor to some of the most complex and dynamic organizations in the industry.
