Enterprise Ireland CEO Leo Clancy to step down
Enterprise Ireland has announced that its CEO Leo Clancy (pictured above) will step down from the role in March 2025 to take up a new leadership role. It is intended that Kevin Sherry, Executive Director and member of the Enterprise Ireland Senior Leadership Team, will be appointed interim CEO from March pending the appointment of a new Chief Executive.
Michael Carey, Chairman of Enterprise Ireland, said: “Leo is leaving to pursue a new career opportunity in the private sector. This news comes at a time when the Agency is in a very strong position, having achieved record results in terms of client jobs and exports, spend in the Irish economy and support for start-ups.”
“Leo’s contribution to the success of Enterprise Ireland over the past four years has been exceptional and he will be greatly missed. We wish him well in the next phase of his career,” added Michael Carey.
Enterprise Ireland will commence a recruitment process immediately to advertise the vacancy and appoint a new Chief Executive to the Agency.
