Shugo Hosoda
Director, President & Representative Executive Officer
The EBARA Group is led by Shugo Hosoda, President & Representative Executive Officer. The leadership structure is organised around the Group's six pump families and the markets they serve.
To our customers, shareholders, partners and colleagues — thank you for your continued trust in the EBARA Group. Since our founding in 1912, our brief has been simple: design pumps that handle the world's hardest fluid duties — and stand behind every machine we ship.
Today, we engineer pumps for five global markets — oil & gas, power, water, building services and industrial process — across 100+ locations worldwide. The challenges facing humanity (water security, energy efficiency, the transition to low-carbon fuels) all run through pumping systems. That is the work the company was made for.
Our long-term framework, E-Vision 2035, commits the Group to higher pump efficiency across the installed base, longer service life through better materials and sealing, and an honest accounting of every kilowatt-hour our pumps draw in the field.
— Shugo Hosoda,
President & Representative Executive Officer
“When you work with passion and dedication, anything is possible.”
— Issey Hatakeyama, Founder · 1912
The EBARA Board of Directors comprises eight members, with a majority of independent outside directors. Audit and Nomination & Compensation Committees are chaired by independents.
The Executive Officers run the six pump segments and the Group corporate functions. Each segment lead holds full P&L accountability for their pump family.
EBARA operates as a Company with a Nominating Committee — the Japanese governance structure providing the strongest separation between supervision and execution.
Board majority independent. Nominating, Audit and Compensation Committees each chaired by an independent outside director. CEO and Board Chair are separate.
Executive compensation includes long-term performance share units linked to E-Vision 2035 targets — including the Group's carbon trajectory and water-security commitments.
Our Code of Conduct, supplier code and whistle-blowing system are framed by the EBARA Way — Founding Spirit, Corporate Philosophy and Brand Statement, with the same authority across every operating company.
