Giosue Vezzuto has been appointed chief executive officer of RINA Services, the RINA Group company active in marine and certification services.
RINA said that Vezzuto has led the company since August, succeeding Paolo Moretti, who today serves as chief executive officer and general manager of RINA S.p.A..
Vezzuto said: “I take on this role with pride and determination, and I am grateful for the trust placed in me. Over the past five years, we have achieved average annual growth of 15 percent in Marine and 10 percent in Certification.”
“These results reflect the dedication of our people and the trust our clients continue to place in RINA. I am committed to building on this progress with ambition, focusing on the quality of our results and services and fostering innovation that creates tangible value for our clients and our people,” added Vezzuto.
“Throughout, we will remain firmly anchored in the values that define us: competence, independence and reliability.”
Moretti added: “Over the years, I have had the opportunity to appreciate Vezzuto’s vision and capabilities across the various roles he has held in Italy and internationally, and I am confident that his experience will bring further value to the markets in which RINA Services operates.”
“With his leadership, the expertise of our people and the strong foundations built over the years, RINA Services is well positioned to continue its growth and make an even stronger contribution to the group’s development.”
RINA said RINA Services generated revenues of over €384 million in 2025, representing around 37 percent of the Group’s total revenues and a 13 percent year-on-year increase. The company expects revenues to exceed €400 million in 2026.
A naval engineer by training, Vezzuto joined RINA in 1997 and has built his career within the group, holding a range of managerial, commercial and operational roles of increasing responsibility.
He started in classification and engineering before moving to the Marine business unit.
He has served as deputy manager of the Naples office, head of the Singapore office, country manager for Southeast Asia, regional manager for Northern Europe and regional manager for Asia.
