Our Chief Executive, Alastair Hamilton, reports to the Board and manages Invest NI’s Senior Management Team.

The Senior Management Team is responsible for achieving Invest NI’s goals and targets as set out in the corporate and operating plans. The Team oversees the delivery of Invest NI’s range of programmes and services.  

Operating divisions

The Senior Management Team is grouped into four operating divisions, each headed by a Managing Director. The divisions are:

The fourth group manages corporate functions such as human resources, information technology, finance, communications, appraisal, strategic planning and property solutions.
