We are no longer accepting applications for this role.

Our client is a leading provider of engineered solutions serving a diverse range of commercial and industrial applications as part of a larger, multi-brand organization.

Situation Analysis

Recently, our client reached a pivotal point following its integration into a larger air-focused industrial group. Despite solid recent growth, the business remained materially underpenetrated against a significant market opportunity spanning indoor air quality, energy efficiency and building automation. The challenge was to transform a technically respected product manufacturer into a broader commercial platform capable of sustaining strong long-term growth through commercial excellence, product innovation and expansion into adjacent channels.

Key Responsibilities

The President leads strategic initiatives to drive growth, innovation and profitability, carrying full P&L accountability and ownership of annual revenue and profit goals. This executive partners with leaders across sales, marketing, engineering, operations and technical services to align resources and optimize the business. The role also transforms the business into a broader commercial platform, advocating for growth priorities within a matrixed industrial environment while promoting collaboration, innovation and operational excellence.

Successful Placement

Our placement is a commercial and operational leader with close to two decades of experience running engineered industrial businesses. Across successive general management roles they carried full P&L accountability, delivered profitable growth and led multi-channel commercial models, teams and operations at scale. They brought a strong record in product innovation, strategic transformation and cross-functional leadership within matrixed organizations, pairing commercial acumen with hands-on operational discipline.
