* Build and develop a high performing leadership team capable of supporting future growth and transformation
* Strengthen supplier, customer and stakeholder relationships within a highly regulated global market
What Success Looks Like
* Proven success leading engineering or technology driven businesses within the maritime sector
* Strong commercial judgement with experience managing full business operations and financial performance
* Credibility in technically complex environments involving compliance, manufacturing or emissions related systems
* A leader who drives accountability, pace and continuous improvement without compromising standards
* Comfortable operating at executive level while remaining close to customers, products and operational delivery
What Is on Offer
