Jason Liggins has taken charge at the company following its separation from Verne and acquisition by Arcus.

“My focus will be on leading the growth of the Volta business, strengthening our position in the London market, and expanding the platform through the acquisition of additional sites as we build Volta into a multi‑site operator. I’m looking forward to driving this next phase of growth in close collaboration with Arcus,” Liggins said on LinkedIn this week.

Liggins was previously CEO of Crown Hosting, the government-focused hosting joint venture between Ark Data Centres and the UK Government. He was at the helm of the company for two years, but had been with Ark since 2014.
