As conversations progressed, it became clear that Charlie's experience aligned perfectly with our high-growth areas and development opportunities. Additionally, working with individuals who are down-to-earth, committed, focused, driven, and have a sense of humour is right at the top of my wish list, and Charlie embodies all these qualities!"

 

On joining the business, Charlie commented: "I have known Hydrogen throughout my career and have always admired the groups' ambition, success and culture. I am excited to join the business as COO to help drive the strategy and growth across all sectors within EMEA.
