Global Head of Energy - #1092907

Head of Energy

Location (Sydney, Singapore or Dubai) | Attractive executive-level package including performance incentives + and relocation/visa support if required.

Xtrava Group is partnering a privately-owned, global engineering company with over 50 years of experience providing turnkey bespoke process plants and systems across the energy and resource sectors.

This is an invitation to shape the future of a company that blends deep technical capability with a strong, people-first culture. With operations across Australia, Asia, the Middle East, and North America, the business is entering a period of significant growth, aiming to increase energy revenues by 50% over the next 3 years.

Joining the executive team, and reporting to the CEO, the Head of Energy will take ownership of this ambition, leading a highly experienced global sales team, strengthening commercial performance, and playing a central role in defining the strategic direction of the Energy division, which represents 75% of current operations.

You’ll join an organisation that values long-term thinking, shared success, and grounded leadership. It is a culture shaped by collaboration, diversity, and a genuine commitment to individual development. With over 400 employees across 30 nationalities, the business operates with a flat structure that prioritises expertise, agility, and trust.

The Energy team is stable, cohesive, and technically sophisticated. Respecting what exists today, while leading the shift toward what’s next will be key. You’ll be responsible for navigating succession across a high-tenure workforce, mentoring the next generation of leaders, and supporting the company’s broader evolution as it explores opportunities in energy transition, emerging geographies, and organisational redesign.

The business is experiencing record growth, and as it continues to do so, a clear pathway to broader leadership responsibilities is on offer.

We are looking for:

• Proven leadership of international, matrixed teams ideally in the oil & gas industries
• Expertise in complex, project-based sales environments
• A track record of commercial growth, transformation, and P&L leadership
• High emotional intelligence, with the ability to balance performance and people in dynamic settings
• A collaborative mindset aligned to a culture that values integrity, respect, and long-term partnership

This is a chance to take the lead within a financially robust, purpose-driven organisation that combines entrepreneurial pace with enduring relationships.
