Escatec Appoints New CEO
PENANG, MALAYSIA – Escatec's board of directors has appointed Charles-Alexandre Albin chief executive officer, effective March 31, 2024.
Since joining Escatec in 2013, Albin has held roles as a board member, executive director, leader of mergers and acquisitions and in his most recent position as chief sales officer. His academic background consists of a BSc in Engineering and Business Studies from the University of Warwick.
The board of directors extended their gratitude to Ernest Sebak, whose instrumental support in guiding Albin towards the role of CEO has been appreciated and recognized as a key milestone for the company. The appointment of Albin as CEO ensures a seamless and steady handover of leadership responsibilities, the company said, and his commitment to Escatec's mission and values, coupled with a well-planned transition alongside Sebak over the next four months, guarantees continuity and predictability.
"As the son of the founder, I have had the privilege of witnessing our business from the early days and of course actively participating in its growth over the past decades," Albin said. "My roles as executive director, board member, and leader in M&A and business development, have given me profound insights which I believe will equip me to lead the organization effectively. I am dedicated to ensuring quality, timely delivery, exceptional customer service, and the sustained development of our group, infusing it with renewed vitality.
"I take immense pride and feel truly honored to collaborate with the exceptionally talented leadership team at Escatec, as well as the experts within each Independent Business Unit and our corporate office.”
