The AIM-traded firm said the move was part of its strategy to accelerate innovation and commercial expansion, while strengthening its position as a global leader in radio frequency (RF) and microwave solutions.
It said Spatola would bring over 20 years of experience in commercial leadership, business development and strategic growth, with a particular focus on the space and defence markets.
He had held senior roles at prominent industry players such as Teledyne E2V and Leonardo, where he successfully developed market strategies, managed complex client relationships, and led the launch of innovative products.

His expertise in building high-performance teams and fostering long-term customer relationships aligned with Filtronic’s goals of achieving sustained growth and innovation.
The board said the appointment highlighted Filtronic’s commitment to enhancing its leadership team as it pursued its strategic objectives across its key markets.
