Halcyon Recruitment are delighted to present an excellent opportunity for a CEO. This fantastic, newly created position is a one-of-a-kind opportunity in the innovative area of renewable energy technology.
Our client is an established shipping expert whose technology (which has been in R&D phase for several years) has been developed from the bottom-up, enabling solutions which fit with existing ship operations. The data predictions and results (using sophisticated prediction models, land-based protypes and an R&D pilot ship) have gleaned a hugely positive reaction from the shipping market organically leading the company into the next phase of commercialisation and development. The CEO will be required to guide, lead and develop the business during this next significant and complex phase.
The Company is seeking a CEO who (in partnership with the board) will achieve the Company’s mission by setting and meeting the Company’s strategies and goals. Established in shipping for over 30 years; relationships with supply chains and installation partners across the globe already exist. Strategies relating to commercialisation and the development roadmap for the product are ready to be finalised and actioned by the new CEO.
This is a unique opportunity for a visionary and engaging leader, with ambition, drive and sound judgement to lead an innovative, pioneering Marine Technology Company.
