The UK head of Fujitsu Services Limited, the company behind the Post Office’s disastrous Horizon IT system, has received a 50% pay rise — despite the firm still refusing to quantify compensation for hundreds of wrongly convicted sub-postmasters.
The Japan-owned technology giant handed its best-paid UK executive — believed to be Anwen Owen, Fujitsu’s UK chief — £591,000 in total pay for the year to March 2025, up from £388,000 the previous year.
Corporate filings show that Owen, who joined the board in 2022, was previously a senior government official, serving as head of engagement at HM Treasury between 2010 and 2012.
The revelation comes as Fujitsu continues to face widespread criticism for its role in what has been described as the biggest miscarriage of justice in British corporate history.
