Background

About Eder Tercero

A results-driven Chemical Engineer with over 10 years of international experience in operational leadership, engineering management, and commercial development across the chemical and manufacturing industries. Currently overseeing both the operational and engineering functions at a distillation facility, I lead a team with a focus on safety, quality, and performance. My responsibilities span the full spectrum of plant management, from daily production and maintenance to process design, product development, and capital project execution. Throughout my career, I have consistently delivered high performance by building top-tier teams, instilling a culture of excellence. My ability to identify process gaps and create new methods where none previously existed has contributed to significant revenue growth and cost efficiencies. While working in Canada, I honed my operational capabilities within global teams, mastering virtual and on-site collaboration. Notable achievements include reducing considerably the distillation batch processing by streamlining operations and embedding Lean Six Sigma and Black Belt methodologies, directly increasing production capacity and responsiveness to market demand. I also bring strong technical expertise in manufacturing processes, quality control,logistics, and compliance, with a passion for continuous improvement and innovation.
