About Air Semiconductor
Air Semiconductor is a fabless semiconductor company developing location solutions for battery operated, mobile consumer devices including cellphones, digital cameras, portable media players, laptops, digital watches, etc.
Their ground-breaking Always-On™ GPS technology will enable mobile devices to be continuously aware of their location for the first time. Rather like a real time clock (RTC) provides almost every electronic device with continuous awareness of the time, our technology will provide all mobile electronic devices with a continuous awareness of their location. Air Semiconductor has been selected as a Red Herring 100 Europe 2008 company.
The Role
The Air Semiconductor management team has exceptional technical pedigree and this is now matched with a strong VC committed to supporting the business through growth to a market dominant position.
Air were seeking to complement this team with a high calibre CEO, who could set and execute a clear plan for business and commercial success, maximising the immediate and longterm market opportunities. This role represents a rare and compelling career opportunity.
Client Feedback
Pond Ventures have worked with the founders of Air since day one, so it was imperative that we hired a great CEO to complement the founding team. We have met and worked with many executive search companies through the years and Gillamor Stephens was an introduction by Intel Capital. We were impressed by their track record of working with early stage technology companies and the Air founding team liked them. We were keen to find an individual with a start-up track record, either in the US and willing to be UK based or vice-versa. Gillamor Stephens generated an impressive shortlist of candidates from both sides of the Atlantic and presented them as a seamless shortlist. They managed the complete interview, reference and offer process resulting in an excellent hire. The level and quality of communication helped ensure the project was successful and that the candidates’ experience was positive.
I think Gillamor Stephens possesses the attitude and approach to be the leading specialist in recruiting entrepreneurial CEOs to run early stage technology companies. We look forward to working with Gillamor Stephens in the future.
