There will be changes to the Executive Board of MAN Energy Solutions SE effective January 1: Dr. Gunnar Stiesch will take over the Technology department, which was previously headed by CEO Dr. Uwe Lauber in a dual role, and will join the board as the new Chief Technology Officer. The 52-year-old engineer was previously Head of Engine Development at the company and has worked for the company in responsible R&D functions for almost 15 years.
Dr. Uwe Lauber, will in future assume responsibility for Sales, which he has already headed in the past, in addition to his role as Chairman of the Board of Management. Chief Sales Officer, Wayne Jones, is leaving the company to pursue new challenges. The reassignment reflects the particular importance of the Technology portfolio in the coming years for the development of the company into a solution provider for climate-friendly technologies, says MAN Energy Solutions. At the same time, the overall size of the Executive Board remains unchanged.
Dr. Stiesch, who holds a doctorate and habilitation from Leibniz Universität Hannover, began his professional career in 2003 as a development engineer at MTU Friedrichshafen. In 2008, he took over as head of the development department in the four-stroke engine and exhaust aftertreatment division at the former MAN Diesel & Turbo before becoming overall head of the company's engine development at the Augsburg and Copenhagen sites in 2017. He also holds a professorship at Leibniz University in Hanover.
