Kocho appoints chief technology officer

Cybersecurity and cloud services provider Kocho has appointed Steven Jones as chief technology officer to support its next phase of growth.

Steven brings more than a decade of experience in identity and security, joining from Amido, where he most recently served as vice president of digital consulting.

In his new role, he will lead Kocho’s technology strategy, overseeing architecture and the development of its identity-led services.

Steven said: “Identity has never been more central to how organisations protect themselves and enable their people. 

“I’m joining Kocho at a moment when that conversation is really accelerating, and I’m looking forward to working with the team to help our customers build lasting identity maturity – not just implementing solutions, but ensuring those foundations are robust, scalable and genuinely fit for the threats they face. 

“Kocho’s heritage in this space and its relationship with Microsoft make it the perfect platform to do just that.”

Steven’s appointment strengthens the firm’s leadership team as it continues to expand its capabilities in identity, cybersecurity and cloud transformation.

Hannah Birch, chief executive at Kocho, added: “Steven brings a rare combination of deep identity expertise and practical delivery leadership. 

“As Identity continues to shape how organisations think about security and resilience, his experience will be central to how we evolve our services and support our clients.”
