Ready for the next stage

Published on 19/03/2018

Esch/Belval – The Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) has officially launched the recruitment process for a new Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The decision to open the position was made in early February by LIST’s Board of Directors based on the shared belief that progress made and results obtained by the current CEO a.i. Fernand Reinig in the development of LIST as a full-fledged Research and Technology Organization are sufficient to move to this next stage.

Like Fernand Reinig, the new CEO will play a pivotal role in ensuring LIST’s strategic continuity, shaping the future success of the institute, and in influencing the public research and innovation environment of Luxembourg and of Europe more broadly. By transferring technology to society as well as local companies, LIST will continue to contribute strongly to the building of tomorrow’s Luxembourg.

Since taking office in 2016, Fernand Reinig has very successfully ensured the task of completing all the essential operational issues that remained after the merger of the Lippman and Tudor institutes in 2015: specific adjustments to the organizational structure, implementing procedures and above all, defining the corporate strategy of LIST as an internationally competitive European RTO going into the future. 

Over the last 18 months, the mission given to Fernand Reinig was that of consolidating and grounding a still young institution with its RTO positioning and its corresponding structures on a durable basis. Many significant advances have been made in this direction, notably with the recent signing of the 2018-2021 performance contract.

The deadline for the submission of candidatures has been set to 20 April 2018. Pending the appointment of the new CEO, Fernand Reinig retains all the functions and prerogatives of CEO, at the operational, strategic and organizational levels.
