Hammoud to Lead Honeywell Technologies' Process Technology Division
Honeywell Technologies has announced two leadership appointments, effective October 1, 2026. Billal Hammoud will take over as President and CEO of Process Technology, while Juan Picon will succeed him as President and CEO of Building Automation.
Hamoud moves from his current role as President and CEO of Building Automation, a position he has held since 2023. Under his leadership, the business increased annual organic growth from 2% in 2023 to 8% in 2025, with seven consecutive quarters of high-single-digit organic growth and margin expansion.
Hammoud's experience in strategy, operational execution, and M&A integration has been cited as factors in his appointment. He will be responsible for translating the foundation laid by his predecessor, Ken West, into operating performance.
