The Chief Technology Officer leads CES Power’s global technology organization and translates the company’s technology strategy into execution, adoption, and measurable business results. Reporting directly to executive leadership, the CTO partners with senior leaders to shape technology priorities while owning the roadmap, architecture, organization, platforms, and execution required to deliver them. This is an operator’s CTO role.

The CTO leads all aspects of technology, including enterprise applications, infrastructure, cybersecurity, data and analytics, software development, integrations, AI and automation, end-user computing, technology support, and strategic technology partners. The fundamental objective is to use technology to make CES Power easier to work for, easier to operate, and easier to do business with. Operating Model

The CTO operates within a clear division of accountability between the business and Technology: Area Primary accountability Business Process Business leaders own the process, operating requirements, policies, and business outcomes. Technology Tools Technology owns the platforms, architecture, integrations, reliability, usability, and technical roadmap that enable the process. Technology Strategy Executive leadership drives overall technology direction; the CTO participates in strategy and owns translating it into priorities, roadmaps, architecture, and execution. Cybersecurity & Risk

Technology Execution and Business Value Translate CES Power’s business and technology strategy into clear priorities, roadmaps, investments, and measurable outcomes. Own execution across the global technology portfolio, balancing speed, scalability, reliability, security, and cost. Establish clear accountability and operating cadence for technology initiatives and personally engage when projects, systems, or vendors require intervention. Connect technology investment to measurable outcomes including productivity, job profitability, asset and labor utilization, operating margin, scalability, and customer experience. Build a technology organization known for solving business problems and delivering results rather than simply administering systems. Technology Organization and Leadership

Ensure technology teams understand the business problems they are solving, not simply the systems they support. Automation AI and Simplification

Use technology, integration, workflow automation, and AI to eliminate unnecessary manual work and make CES Power simpler to operate. Identify friction, duplicate entry, disconnected workflows, and administrative burden across the organization and systematically reduce them. Operationalize appropriate AI opportunities from concept through production, adoption, and measurable results; apply AI where it materially improves the business rather than pursuing AI for its own sake. Partner with business leaders to understand how work actually happens before designing or implementing technology solutions. Measure success through adoption and business impact rather than project completion alone. Enterprise Applications Data and Integration

Own the technology capabilities supporting CES Power’s ERP, CRM, operational platforms, iSeeWhere, and other core business systems. Ensure platforms are reliable, integrated, scalable, and capable of producing trusted information for decision making.

Maintain executive accountability for cybersecurity, technology risk, infrastructure, identity, business continuity, and disaster recovery. Establish appropriate security standards and ensure internal teams and strategic partners execute against them. Lead security with a business-enablement mindset, protecting CES Power without creating unnecessary friction for employees or customers. Hold managed service, security, and technology partners accountable for performance, responsiveness, economics, and results. Ensure the global technology environment is reliable, scalable, and prepared to support continued growth. Field and Global Business Engagement

Spend meaningful time with CES Power employees where work happens, including branches, warehouses, and active job sites. Develop firsthand understanding of how technology impacts leaders, Account Managers, Project Managers, technicians, warehouse personnel, and other employees.

Ensure technology solutions work in real-world operating environments, not just in an office or demonstration environment. Maintain global visibility across the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, and future geographies while establishing appropriate enterprise standards. Technology Economics and Vendor Performance

Own the technology budget and ensure resources are directed toward the highest-value business priorities. Develop credible business cases for significant technology investments and measure whether expected benefits are realized. Manage strategic technology partners based on outcomes, service quality, economics, and business value.
