Mr. Brown, age 59, is currently serving as executive vice president and president of Ecolab’s Global Industrial Group, a position he has held since April 2019. Earlier, he was executive vice president and president of Ecolab’s Energy Services Division from January 2018 to March 2019, and executive vice president of the Global Downstream and WellChem businesses of the Energy Services Division from April 2017 to December 2017. Previously, Mr. Brown held several leadership positions within Ecolab, including executive vice president and president of Europe, executive vice president of Asia Pacific and vice president for Australia and New Zealand.
