This is a senior executive appointment at a fast-scaling, technology-driven energy company operating across regulated electricity markets in Ireland, Australia, and Texas.</span></span><span> </span></p>\n<p><span><span>VIOTAS enables large commercial and industrial customers to participate actively in electricity markets — generating revenue for those customers while supporting grid stability and the integration of renewable energy. The business operates at the intersection of hardware, software, and real-time energy market participation across three highly regulated jurisdictions, and operational reliability is central to its commercial credibility and growth trajectory.</span></span><span> </span></p>\n<p><span><span>The COO will provide executive leadership for all operational functions, set the standards and governance that allow the business to scale internationally, and hold the operational integrity of the business across its markets. This is a role for an executive who is equally at home setting operational strategy and holding the line on operational discipline when commercial pressure tests it.</span></span><span> </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(230, 126, 35); font-weight: bold\">About VIOTAS: </span></p>\n<p><span><span>VIOTAS is a market leader in smart grid technology and demand response services. Headquartered in Limerick with global offices in Melbourne, Krakow, and Texas (U.S.), VIOTAS enables commercial and industrial clients to actively participate in electricity markets, generating revenue while supporting renewable energy integration and grid stability.</span></span><span> </span></p>\n<p><span><span>Recognised internationally for innovation and growth, VIOTAS plays a critical role in building a sustainable energy future and was named Ireland’s fastest-growing technology company at the Deloitte Fast 50 Awards in 2019.</span></span><span> </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(230, 126, 35); font-weight: bold\">The Role:</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Own end-to-end operational performance across all markets — site availability, dispatch reliability, SLA delivery, asset health, safety, and regulatory compliance.</span></span><span> </span></li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Hold executive sign-off authority for operational readiness, ensuring that what the business commits to deliver can be operated safely and at scale before it goes live.</span></span><span> </span></li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Maintain executive-level comprehension of electricity systems, market mechanisms, and regulatory direction across all operating jurisdictions, and cultivate that comprehension across the in-market leadership teams.</span></span><span> </span></li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Lead the central operational functions — Network Operations Centre, Market Operations, and Field Operations — and the in-market operational leadership across VIOTAS’s operating markets.</span></span><span> </span></li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Act as the senior executive lead for major operational incidents, chair the cross-functional reliability governance forum, and own the incident response architecture.</span></span><span> </span></li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Build the capability, structure, and leadership depth of the operations function, and drive automation, analytical rigour, and continuous improvement across the operating model.</span></span><span> </span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(230, 126, 35);
