12/27/2013 - As part of the "Salzgitter AG 2015" reorganization project the Salzgitter Group has established a new Group organization structure that takes effect as of 1 January 2014.
The new Group structure is aligned even more strongly than before to customer and market requirements. The Executive Board and business unit heads form the new Group Management Board. The Supervisory Board approved the appointment of the new business unit heads in its meeting on 17 December 2013.
The Group Management Board consists of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Heinz Jörg Fuhrmann (chief executive officer), Dipl.-Volkswirt Burkhard Becker (chief financial officer), Dipl.-Ökonom Michael Kieckbusch (chief personnel officer/industrial relations director) and the heads of the five business units of Strip Steel, Plate/Sections, Trading, Energy (formerly Tubes) and Technology.
