Lead the identification, due diligence, and integration of strategic business acquisitions to expand market share, enter new segments, or acquire complementary technologies.

Drive international growth, particularly by leveraging the group’s proven solutions for new geographic markets.

Champion innovation, working with technical teams to develop new product solutions that address emerging market needs, such as energy efficiency, retrofit compatibility, and hybrid systems.

Oversee the commercial strategy, including pricing, sales, and marketing, to ensure a robust pipeline of opportunities and effective monetisation of the installed base.
