“As we continue to expand our operations globally, we want to ensure that all elements of our business are ready and able to support our rapid scaling, especially those that impact our financial reporting and successful business relationships with existing investors and future funding sources,” said Claude Letourneau, Svante’s President and CEO. “I’m pleased to welcome Justine to the C-suite team at Svante and announce that Karen Miller, VP of Finance and Internal Controls, Kent Alekson, VP of Corporate Development, and Tyler Cheyne, VP of People and Culture, will be reporting directly to the new CFO.”
“Carbon management is a critical pillar of the green industrial transition that will help us slow the pace of climate change. I am honoured to be a part of the Svante carbon capture solution,” said Ms. Fisher. “It is impressive to see a company scale as quickly as Svante has over the past couple of years and I look forward to working with Claude and the team to unlock the company’s next phase of growth as we commercialize around the world.”
Justine brings over 20 years of experience in corporate finance, capital raising, balance sheet management, and investor communications in the commodities and industrial sectors.
