Charter Communications adds president to COO Bickham’s title

Charter Communications has added president to the title of its Chief Operating Officer John Bickham.

“John is the best operating executive in the industry and Charter is lucky to have him,” said Charter chairman and CEO Tom Rutledge. “It is no accident that Charter has become the fastest growing cable company in the nation over the last several years under John’s leadership. His operational expertise will continue to be invaluable to the company as we integrate three companies into one, and bring the many benefits of the Charter strategy and the Spectrum brand to millions of customers.”

Bickham joined the Stamford-based Charter in 2012; previously he was president of cable and communications at Cablevision.
