Renewable-Hydrogen Certificate Platform Recovery Leader — Industrial Energy

The mandate

The registry executive was removed after testing found that corrected production-meter values did not consistently update certificate availability and delivered-product claims across two trading periods. Settlement was paused for affected positions, but origin, electricity input, production batch, storage, transfer and retirement evidence cannot be reconstructed uniformly. The integrity committee has delayed onboarding new industrial participants.

The interim must start within three weeks for eleven months, leading impact review, registry repair, two settlement cycles and successor transfer. A permanent search begins after the first sixty-day evidence baseline. Six weeks of overlap are reserved; the fixed term will not extend for market-growth work or a delayed search once certificate and settlement controls are accepted.

Handover requires every active certificate to resolve to qualified production, energy source, temporal rule, batch, custody, transfer, claim and retirement; the affected positions must be dispositioned; and two independent settlement replays must pass. The successor will authorise an unseen meter correction and accept residual storage, cross-registry and evolving-methodology limitations.

The interim may freeze certificate issuance, quarantine positions, suspend participants under existing rules, direct the authorised €22 million remediation and appoint temporary registry-control leads. Methodology approval, participant remedy, permanent appointment, market-rule change and spend above budget require committee or executive approval. The seat cannot certify physical hydrogen quality or determine contractual delivery.

Hydrogen production optimisation, pipeline operations and design of new certificate methodology are outside this assignment. The leader may require metering and custody evidence but does not own industrial offtake contracts, physical scheduling or policy advocacy. Recovery must separate registry integrity from unresolved wider debates about hydrogen additionality and carbon accounting.

Why this seat is open

The correction failure exposed a registry whose digital state could remain plausible after physical evidence changed, followed by removal of its executive owner. Market Operations can freeze settlement but cannot redesign participant and platform control alone. A temporary market-infrastructure leader must restore credibility before expansion and permanent succession.

What you will own

• Reconstruct affected certificates across energy input, producer, meter, batch, storage, transfer, claim, retirement and settlement evidence.
• Define effective correction, cancellation, split, aggregation and retirement rules preserving the original and restated market record.
• Decide which certificates may settle, require corroboration, need participant review or must remain quarantined.
• Direct exercises covering meter restatement, storage commingling, cross-registry transfer, delayed custody and duplicate retirement.
• Establish participant contracts for evidence, acknowledgement, correction, audit access and suspension under platform failure.
• Govern remediation against dispositioned positions, reproducible settlement, participant trust and controlled onboarding.
• Transfer authority through an unseen correction, settlement replay and successor acceptance of methodology and registry debt.

Candidate qualifications

• Held executive registry, certificate or commodity-market platform authority for traded energy, emissions or environmental products.
• Reconstructed digital instruments after qualified metering, physical production or chain-of-custody evidence changed retrospectively.
• Governed issuance, split, transfer, claim and retirement without presenting a registry entry as physical-product quality certification.
• Led participant-level market settlement review under policy scrutiny while preserving original and corrected instrument evidence.
• Suspended certificate issuance or trading when instrument integrity failed despite visible growth and liquidity pressure.
• Handed a recovered registry to permanent leadership through an unseen source correction and full settlement testing.

Non-negotiables

• Available within three weeks for exclusive Rotterdam service with site and participant travel across industrial clusters.
• Has governed certificate or commodity registry integrity; generic marketplace or blockchain delivery is insufficient.
• No undisclosed relationship with producers, registries, metering firms, traders or assurance providers in scope.
• Will separate registry evidence from methodology, physical quality and contractual delivery decisions.
