ArcelorMittal Italia has appointed Lucia Morselli as chairman and CEO, replacing Matthieu Jehl, who will take up new responsibilities within the producer.
“I would like to start by thanking Matthieu Jehl for the important role he has played in helping ArcelorMittal establish a presence in Italy,” said ArcelorMittal Europe CEO, Flat Products, Geert van Poelvoorde.
“Good progress has been made, specifically on the implementation of the environmental investments and in improving processes, despite the challenging external environment.
“We are very pleased to welcome Lucia as new chairman and CEO of ArcelorMittal Italia. She is widely recognised as a highly experienced business leader who has made a significant contribution to Italian industry.”
For her part, Morselli added: “There is arguably no bigger, more complex industrial challenge within Italy today than the ex-Ilva facilities.
“I am very motivated by the opportunity to lead ArcelorMittal Italia and I will do my best to secure its future and ensure its contribution is valued by all stakeholders.”
