Jack Govers is the new chief executive at A-Gas
As A-Gas continues its environmental journey and its focus on sustainability, new opportunities in the marketplace are present globally. To pursue this ambitious growth agenda, the company is continuing to invest in its people, processes, innovation and technology to expand its service offering and drive towards its sustainability pledge of becoming a net zero company by the year 2035.
After an extensive global search, Jack Govers has been appointed as the new chief executive to lead and deliver A-Gas’ plans for further growth, sustainability and operational business excellence.
Govers said: “I am joining A-Gas at an exciting time for the business as it continues on its environmental journey and plans for growth into new markets and regions. The company has built an outstanding reputation for almost 30 years and I look forward to being a part of what is to come.”
Govers brings a wealth of leadership experience and accomplishments from previous assignments at GE, SABIC, Aleris and Novelis where he has delivered exceptional growth, introduced circular economy initiatives and worked closely with private equity investors.
Andrew Ambrose, chief executive officer of the business for more than seven years, will be moving into the role of executive chairman, continuing to work on the global leadership team on a full-time basis.
