The Opportunity
We are exclusively supporting a globally recognised machine tools manufacturer in the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer.
This is an opportunity to lead an established, technology-driven business with a strong international presence and an enviable position within its market.
The company is a true manufacturing business, with design, engineering and production capabilities under one roof. Its reputation has been built around the development of high-performance machine tools, technological innovation and a commitment to delivering solutions that provide genuine value to customers.
The business is now entering an exciting phase of growth and is looking for a commercially driven CEO who can build on its existing success and accelerate its next chapter.

This is therefore a role for a CEO who is comfortable being commercially hands-on and who sees growth as being driven not only through traditional sales channels, but through understanding customers, identifying emerging opportunities and developing new routes to market.
