Dr Bernhard Bruggaier appointed as Group Chief Executive of Acteon Group Ltd
The Board of Directors
of Acteon Group Ltd, a global provider of services to the renewable, infrastructure
and oil and gas industries, has appointed Dr Bernhard Bruggaier as Group
Chief Executive, succeeding Dr Carl Trowell, effective from 1 January 2023.
Bernhard joined Acteon’s subsidiary MENCK in 1994, became its Managing
Director in 1998 and joined Acteon’s executive management team following
the acquisition of MENCK in 2003. After that, Bernhard served in various
senior strategic and operational management roles before being appointed
Chief Operating Officer in 2018 and joining Acteon’s Board of Directors
in 2021.
Commenting on the transition, Chairman of the Board, Juan de Ochoa, said:
“On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Carl for his significant
contribution as Group Chief Executive and wish him all the very best for
the future. As the business moves into a new phase of growth, we are delighted
that Bernhard has agreed to transition into the role. We are confident
that he will lead the company and our people with the passion and strategic
vision he has shown in serving the business for so many years. We look
forward to working closely with Bernhard as he continues leveraging the
company’s innovative technology, engineering capability and operational
strength to pursue sustainable growth.”
Dr Bernhard Bruggaier commented “I joined Acteon when it was a small
company. I have enjoyed our journey to the dynamic, increasingly renewables-focused
international organisation that Acteon is now. I am honoured to be asked
to lead the team that forms Acteon today and which comprises first-class,
highly dedicated individuals in all functions of the organisation, some
of whom I have worked with for years. Together, we will shape the future
of Acteon through developing our legacy energy markets as much as focusing
on the necessary energy transition that we have already been driving for
over 20 years.”
