COSOL Welcomes New Chief Executive Officer, Scott McGowan

Brisbane, 4 Oct 2016: The Board of Directors of COSOL is pleased to announce the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer, Scott McGowan.

“This is an exciting and gratifying time for both COSOL and myself. Scott worked with us for 9 years commencing in a consulting role and progressing through to managing our Eastern Australian region and then our business development globally. It didn’t seem so at the time but I now realise that the time Scott spent working in other organisations has helped grow his skills to a point where he returns to the challenge of filling the most senior operating role in our organisation. I believe Scott’s return, combined with the Capital Intensive Industry experience of our Executive Directors and our consulting and technical teams, heralds a new era for COSOL and our customers.” said Brad Skeggs, Managing Director.

Scott commented “having worked in asset intensive industries with global technology firms, I saw a gap in capability for consulting firms that understand the intersection between the business and technology.  In COSOL, I find a company that not only understands it but provides a pragmatic way for asset intensive organisations to drive step change business improvement by leveraging proven technologies.  I am excited about the opportunity to lead the COSOL team and I look forward to working with our clients to realize value in their technology investments.”. 

Scott returns to COSOL after spending the past 5 years in senior roles with Wipro and IBM. Scott brings a wealth of knowledge as a highly experienced Executive Manager with a proven record of leading diverse teams of professionals to new levels of success in highly competitive markets. Scott’s strong technical and business qualifications, and an impressive track record of hands-on experience in strategic planning, business unit development, project management, product development and system engineering strategies will provide the next level of executive guidance to support COSOL’s rapid expansion.
