Prior to joining Diageo four years ago, Teles spent 13 years with Heineken, rising to CMO for the US from 2014 to 2018.
“I would like to thank Dayalan for his outstanding contribution as MD of GB and wish him all the best in his new role,” said president of Diageo Europe & India, and Teles’ line manager, John Kennedy. “I would also like to congratulate Nuno Teles on his new appointment and welcome him to the European executive committee. In North America, Nuno led a transformation of the business and its culture. I’ve been especially impressed with Nuno’s passion for inclusivity and diversity and I am excited about the expertise he will bring to the role and what he will achieve for GB.”
Earlier this month, Diageo lined up a US$53.1m investment in its Guinness packaging facilities in the UK.
