OceanGate has chosen a new CEO in the wake of the tragic death of Stockton Rush, the former chief, during an implosion incident involving the company’s submersible in June.
Gordon Gardiner, a former investment banker, has been appointed as OceanGate’s CEO and will oversee the ongoing investigations and closure of the company’s operations.
Gardiner brings a wealth of experience to the role, having spent 15 years at JPMorgan and serving as the CEO of TableSafe. He is also the chairman of Quantum Holdings and a general partner at Swiftsure Capital, demonstrating his expertise in the financial industry.
Additionally, Gardiner’s educational background includes a bachelor’s degree from Harvard University and completion of an executive program at Stanford University Graduate School of Business.
Notably, Gardiner has been a resident of Seattle, Washington for 26 years and has a passion for skiing and cycling.
Following the submersible implosion incident, which resulted in the tragic loss of five passengers, OceanGate made the decision to suspend all exploration and commercial operations and took down its social media pages.
Despite only reaching the Titanic wreck depth on a small percentage of its dives, OceanGate plans to navigate through the aftermath of the incident under Gardiner’s leadership.
