• Proven leadership of international project delivery or professional services teams in a technology company
• Strong commercial acumen and experience supporting tender processes and contract negotiations
• Ability to engage at C-level with utility customers and manage complex stakeholder relationships
• Entrepreneurial, pragmatic, and hands-on leadership style, suited to a fast-growing international business
