Executive Takes Over Financial Director Role In February And Reinforces The Governance, Financial Discipline, And Sustainable Growth Agenda Of The Cabotage Company.

Norsul, one of the largest cabotage companies in Brazil, announced in February 2026 the appointment of André Gonçalves as the new financial director of the company.

Thus, the move strengthens the company’s executive structure and, at the same time, ensures the continuity of the financial and corporate governance agenda.

In addition, the decision comes at a time of growth and consolidation of the company’s business, which has accumulated more than 60 years of operation in the navigation sector, according to institutional information released by Norsul.

Consequently, the arrival of the executive becomes part of the strategy to strengthen financial discipline, governance, and long-term value generation.

More Than Two Decades of Experience In The Financial Sector

First, André Gonçalves has over 20 years of experience in leading financial areas in companies from different segments.

Throughout his career, the executive has built a solid trajectory.

Initially, he worked in various positions in the financial areas of Aracruz Celulose and Fibria Celulose, two relevant companies in the forest-based sector in Brazil.

Later, he took on the role of CFO of JSL, a company nationally recognized in the logistics segment.

More recently, he served as CFO of iugu, a fintech authorized by the Central Bank of Brazil, specializing in financial technology and payment solutions.

Furthermore, throughout his professional trajectory, Gonçalves led various strategic areas, including:

  • Treasury
  • Controllership
  • Financial Planning (FP&A)
  • Investor Relations

At the same time, he also conducted mergers and acquisitions (M&A) operations and initial public offering (IPO) projects.

Additionally, he oversaw corporate areas such as Information Technology, Legal, Supply Chain, and Fraud Prevention.

Thus, according to the company, his performance has always been focused on operational efficiency, corporate governance, and support for sustainable business growth.

Board Change Accompanies Transition In The Company’s Leadership

Meanwhile, the appointment comes after a recent change in the company’s executive leadership.

Previously, Rodrigo Cuesta, who held the position of financial and new business director at Norsul, took on the role of CEO of the company.

Thus, the reorganization of the executive structure was conducted as part of a natural corporate succession process.

Consequently, the move seeks to ensure continuity of the organizational strategy, institutional stability, and strengthening of corporate governance.

According to Rodrigo Cuesta, CEO of Norsul, the arrival of the new executive expands the company’s strategic capacity.

“We are continuing with a solid executive structure built with a focus on financial discipline, governance, and long-term value creation. The arrival of André strengthens this agenda and enhances our execution capacity,” Cuesta stated.

Financial Strategy Aligned With The Company’s Growth

For his part, André Gonçalves highlighted the importance of joining an organization with more than six decades of experience in the navigation sector.

According to the executive, the priority will be to maintain the financial strategy aligned with the operation and value generation of the company.

“Becoming part of an organization with over 60 years of history, built with discipline and excellence in services, is a source of pride and responsibility,” Gonçalves stated.

Moreover, the new financial director emphasized that the focus will be on efficient capital allocation and strengthening the company’s financial strategy.

Thus, the goal will be to ensure that financial decisions align with the operation and sustainable growth of the organization.

Commitment To Governance And Executive Leadership

Finally, with the appointment announced in 2026, the company reinforces its commitment to structured governance, planned succession, and continuous strengthening of executive leadership.

Therefore, the administrative reorganization reinforces Norsul’s corporate strategy.

At the same time, it consolidates an executive structure aimed at financial discipline, organizational stability, and sustainable growth in the Brazilian navigation sector.
