Rino Parletta

As Managing Director and a Principal at Cheme, I am driven by a simple, powerful belief: when people thrive, organizations excel — and clients feel the difference.

For me, leadership is about building a culture where curiosity is encouraged, collaboration is instinctive, and excellence becomes the natural outcome of how we work together.

With deep experience across the Pharma, Biotech, Science & Technology, and Cannabis sectors, I’ve spent my career helping teams deliver high risk, complex capital projects with precision, integrity, and creativity. My technical background covers a broad range of specialized systems — from high-purity water and bio-waste systems to aseptic processing, sterilization, facility planning, and critical process utilities. But my true passion lies in bringing people together to solve meaningful problems, transform ideas into reality, and strengthen the trust our clients place in Cheme.

What I Stand For
• Culture first. A strong culture isn’t a slogan — it’s the engine that fuels innovation, quality, and long-term success.
• Distinctive client outcomes. Our work must not only meet expectations but consistently exceed them.
• Trust through communication. Transparency, empathy, and clarity build the relationships that set Cheme apart.
• Creative, collaborative thinking. Great solutions emerge when diverse minds work together toward a shared purpose.
• Leadership that empowers. My role is to enable people to excel, grow, and take pride in what they create.

My Vision for Cheme
I’m committed to leading Cheme into a future defined by growth, innovation, and organizational excellence — where our people feel inspired, our clients feel supported, and our partners feel valued. Together, we will continue to deliver distinctive results, uphold the highest standards of GMP and non-GMP design, and evolve our capabilities to meet the rapidly shifting needs of the life sciences industry.

Our future isn’t just about scaling — it’s about scaling the right way, with culture, quality, and integrity at the centre of every decision.

Let’s Connect
I’m always open to conversations about leadership, engineering innovation, high-performing cultures, or opportunities to collaborate in shaping the future of life sciences.
