Our ambition is to significantly amplify this impact over the next five years, and we seek a driven ED to guide us on this journey.

  • Stay informed on industry, community, and global trends pertinent to priority projects and the CES.
  • Ensure compliance with all FEO policies and procedures, and oversee the adherence of all personnel and volunteers to these standards.
  • In the long term, assemble and lead a proficient management and operational team of qualified experts in line with CES strategies.
