The Institute of Telecommunications Professionals (ITP) has appointed Guy Arnel as a new Fellow, bringing a wealth of expertise, insight, and leadership into the ITP fellowship community.
Arnel has over 25 years of experience delivering some of the telecoms industry's most complex and high-value programmes, and his career has included working as Founder and Managing Director of Frednel Commercial Management Services across the UK, Ireland, Japan and Australia.
This position involved rollouts from the UK’s first commercial 5G launch with Vodafone, to major 3G and 4G deployments for Eir, Softbank and Three, and managing a full network vendor transition for O2 Ireland.
Since launching Frednel in 2021, Arnel has grown the consultancy into a trusted name in the industry, driving commercial delivery through data-led cost control, supplier engagement, and talent development through internship programmes.
His appointment as an ITP Fellow recognises not only his contribution to telecoms, but also his ongoing commitment to shaping its future, through mentorship, policy engagement, and workforce development.
