Aerospace giant Rolls-Royce has appointed a new chief executive to its power systems arm.
Dr Jörg Stratmann will join the company on November 15, reporting to chief executive Warren East as part of the wider executive team. He succeeds Andreas Schell, who stepped down from the role earlier in the year.
Mr Stratmann, who holds a doctorate in industrial engineering, was most recently chief executive and chairman of automotive supplier Mahle GmbH. In the role, he expanded the business outside the area of combustion engines towards customised solutions for e-mobility and developed new business opportunities based on sustainable technologies for global markets, according to Rolls-Royce.
