Handing Over to the Next Generation
Victor Creixell, Executive Director, Tradebe USA (US CEO), has become the company’s new Tradebe Environmental Services Global CEO as of July 2017.
Josep Creixell, the current president who founded Tradebe in 1983 and who has led the company since that date, will move on to setting up and leading the Board of Directors. Tradebe USA also welcomes our new CEO, Eric Nielsen, who has developed his career in the mining and exploration heavy machinery industry, and who has the mandate to continue growing our US business.
Victor has led the US division as its CEO for the last three years. Prior to that, Victor had led the Spanish and UK divisions, and also spearheaded the project to build the Terminal for Hydrocarbon Storage in the Port of Barcelona.
Victor Creixell states: “I am very much looking forward to taking up this challenge. The company is growing, there are excellent projects underway and we also have a very cohesive team that is well prepared to lead us to a successful future”.
After 34 years of leading the Tradebe organization, Josep Creixell states that: “As shareholders, we feel that the current position of the company is an ideal time for me to hand over the role and responsibility of Global CEO to Victor Creixell”. He continues, "It is also a good time to separate duties and responsibilities of management (Management Team) from those associated with the governance of the company (Shareholders). To that end, I will concentrate my efforts on developing a Board of Directors that can help the company in its future endeavors."
Our values, objectives and strategies will remain the same as those that have helped Tradebe succeed to this date. As far as the company’s strategic approach is concerned, our main objectives will be to grow in a sustainable manner with a prudent level of indebtedness and to concentrate on mature and regulated markets, i.e. North America, Europe and the Middle East.
