Qualifications

You are an accomplished executive with experience leading a significant business, portfolio, or operating unit within defence, aerospace, or another complex, regulated engineering environment.

You will bring:

Accountability for substantial organizational and financial performance.
Experience leading complex systems integration programs across the full lifecycle.
A track record of balancing profitable growth, operational performance, and program execution.
Strong knowledge of defence acquisition, capability development, and government stakeholder environments.
Experience navigating multinational organizations, international partnerships, and cross-border contracts.
The ability to synthesize complex information quickly and make sound decisions in ambiguous, fast-moving situations.
A record of building capable leadership teams, developing talent, and creating high-performance cultures.
A degree in engineering, business, or a related discipline; an MBA or advanced degree is preferred.
Identifies opportunities to apply AI for continuous improvement and innovation.

Leadership Profile:

An enterprise-minded and progressive thinker with a global perspective.
Commercially astute, financially disciplined, and oriented toward growth.

Skilled at integrating customer, operational, technical, and market perspectives.
A credible executive presence who can influence, motivate, and build lasting relationships.
Energized by transformation, complexity, and the opportunity to deliver meaningful outcomes.
