CreevX, a leading provider of smart water management and compliance solutions, is pleased to announce the appointment of Matthew Nelson as its new Chief Executive Officer. This marks an exciting milestone in the company’s growth journey and reflects CreevX’s continued commitment to innovation in intelligent building technology and water safety.
Matthew steps into the CEO role following his impactful tenure as Commercial Director, where he played a key role in driving commercial strategy, supporting major customer deployments and scaling CreevX’s reach in domestic and international markets. In this time, Matthew has helped lead CreevX’s work to modernise how organisations monitor and manage water systems, using real-time data, automation and AI-enabled insights to improve compliance, reduce waste and enhance sustainability outcomes.
Founded in Northern Ireland, CreevX combines expertise in industrial IoT (IIoT), data analytics and facilities management to offer solutions such as its Smart Water Management System-a platform that continuously monitors water system conditions, automates regulatory-aligned responses and provides actionable insights across complex estates. The company’s technology is trusted by organisations looking to streamline legionella compliance, reduce operational cost and support sustainability goals.
The appointment of Matthew Nelson as CEO is a natural progression for the company as it continues to scale and innovate. His deep understanding of CreevX’s technology, markets and strategic vision positions him to lead the organisation into its next phase of growth.
Reflecting on his appointment and the company’s growth, Matthew Nelson said, “It’s a privilege to step into the role of CEO at such an important moment for CreevX. Over the past two years, we have grown revenue more than 3.5x, close to doubling year-on-year, as organisations increasingly move toward real-time, data-led management of their building environments.
This momentum reflects both the strength of our technology and the trust our customers place in us to support critical infrastructure. While we are proud of how far we’ve come, this is only the beginning. Our focus now is on accelerating that growth, expanding our platform capabilities, and establishing CreevX as a defining intelligence layer within modern estates.”
Speaking about the impact of the appointment, Conor McCann, Product Manager at CreevX, said, “Having worked closely with Matthew, and having known him personally for many years, I’ve seen the impact of his leadership first-hand. He brings clarity, energy and a strong sense of direction for the team, and he genuinely believes in everything we are trying to achieve. He’s building the next phase of growth on top of strong foundations already in place, and he’s absolutely the right person to lead CreevX forward.”
Seamus Cushley, Founder, Moyola.io said, “Matthew’s appointment comes at a pivotal moment for CreevX as it moves from proven technology to true platform-scale ambition. Having worked closely with him on leadership and strategic positioning, what stands out is his ability to see beyond immediate execution to where the market is heading. He understands that building an intelligence platform demands a different kind of thinking and leadership, and he brings the commercial credibility to make that shift successfully. That clarity of thinking, combined with proven execution capability, positions CreevX exceptionally well for its next chapter.”
Under Matthew’s leadership, CreevX will continue to focus on enhancing its offerings, supporting existing customers, and expanding into new sectors and geographies. The company remains committed to delivering smarter, data-driven solutions that help clients achieve compliance with confidence, reduce environmental impact and unlock long-term value through digital transformation.
