Suzanne Lowe of Air Products champions a collaborative and inclusive workplace, built on a shared commitment to safety
Suzanne Lowe is Vice President and General Manager of Air Products for the United Kingdom, Ireland, Israel and Italy. She is responsible for driving the strategy and profitability of the company’ s industrial gases and electronics businesses in these countries.
She joined Air Products in 1987, as a participant in the company’ s career development program, and has since held numerous leadership positions, both commercial and operational. Her broad experience spans all core businesses, with key roles in merchant gases, electronics and tonnage gases.
“ I started in this industry as a physics graduate from Liverpool University and was used to operating within a rather male dominated environment,” Suzanne begins.“ What has shaped my leadership style is my personal resilience and grit to keep going in what was a male-oriented sector in the mid-80s. You start to recognize other resilient individuals; those people who create a safe space for the development and growth of others.
