Norderstedt (euro adhoc) - Dr. Marc Sielemann (41) is assuming the position of COO Operations on Nordex AG´s Management Board effective April 1, 2009 and will be responsible for production, sourcing and service. Prior to this, he held management positions at MAN for many years. In one of his most recent functions, he was the managing director of MAN Trucks in Poland and responsible for the final assembly of heavy-duty trucks for Eastern Europe and Russia. With a doctorate in mechanical engineering, he has a proven track record as a production specialist with broad experience in the assembly of production facilities. This is of particular relevance for Nordex as it will be spending heavily over the next few years on establishing and extending its production facilities in Germany, China and the United States.
In March 2009, three members of Nordex AG´s Supervisory Board stepped down. This also included the chairman of the Supervisory Board, Yves Schmitt, who has entered retirement. He was replaced as chairman of the Supervisory Board by Uwe Lüders, who has been CEO of L. Possehl & Co. mbH since 2004, prior to which he held management positions at GEA AG and Buderus AG. In addition, Dr. Wolfgang Ziebart and Dr. Dieter G. Maier were appointed to the Supervisory Board to replace former members Dr. Hans W. Fechner and Dr. Hans Seifert.
"On behalf of the Management Board, I would like to thank the former members of our Supervisory Board for their constructive support and assistance in connection with our Company´s successful expansion in the years since its realignment," said Thomas Richterich, CEO of Nordex AG.
