Sondrel appoints new Head of Projects

John Chubb, Sondrel’s CEO, commented: “Mat brings an impressive wealth of experience in delivering technically complex systems, especially within the nuclear and space sectors. With a proven track record in managing multidisciplinary engineering projects, operations and commercial management, Mat will be instrumental in driving our projects forward and helping us achieve our strategic goals.

“There can be few more challenging areas to project manage than satellites except perhaps for atomic energy and he has spent nearly 40 years doing both! His impressive CV includes work for the UK Atomic Energy Authority, Oxford Space Systems, NASA, Spire Global, and the European Space Agency. No wonder he is a Fellow of the Association of Project Management. Who better to ensure our philosophy of delivering projects on time and budget to agreed requirements continues!”

Mat Rowe, added: “Sondrel has an incredible wealth of engineering knowledge and skills built up over the past 20 years for creating ultra-complex custom chips. I am delighted to be part of the new leadership team that John Chubb has put together so that the company can continue to win new and exciting projects that will enable our customers to bring next-generation products to market. Each project going from architectural specification to shipping silicon requires an incredibly precise level of project management and that is my speciality perfected over the past decades. After all, you just can’t make mistakes with satellites and atomic energy!”
