EuroChem Group AG, Zug, Switzerland, has announced the appointment of Vladimir Rashevskiy as its new CEO. Rashevskiy recently stepped down as CEO of Russia’s Siberia Coal Energy Co. (SUEK) after 15 years at the helm.
“We know Vladimir well through his management of SUEK, where he built a solid track record of success over the years. Through his efforts, the company has achieved impressive results. We are counting on his experience as EuroChem enters a new phase of development,” said EuroChem Board Chairman Samir Brikho.
Rashevskiy replaces Petter Østbø, who only joined EuroChem as CEO on June 1, 2019 (GM May 31 & Feb. 15, 2019). Østbø previously had served as EVP and CFO of Yara International, before which he held the position of Yara EVP Production.
