Billings took up the role on 15 September, succeeding Frank Lorenzetto, who had been leading the ATF business on an interim basis and will now focus on his role as Senior Vice President Opportunity Management.
Billings joins Exyte from Jacobs, where he most recently served as Senior Vice President, EMEA Operations for Advanced Facilities.
He led business activities across the semiconductor, electronics, data centre and science and technology markets in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

His experience includes advanced technology facilities and semiconductor-related projects, as well as strategy, business development and operational leadership.
In his new role, Billings will lead the strategy and commercial activities of Exyte's ATF business.
Exyte said the appointment will support the continued development of ATF, which it identifies as one of its strategic growth markets.
