Massimo Battaini (pictured) has been appointed as Prysmian’s new chief executive and general manager.
This marks the entering into force of the new organisational structure, aimed at supporting the group’s strategic plan and value creation, Prysmian said.
The new organisation, as already announced in December, is composed of four business units – transmission, power grid, electrification and digital solutions.
This is aimed at ensuring utmost coverage of the key market trends related to the energy transition and the digital transformation, in addition to supporting the group’s growth ambitions, Prysmian said.
Besides the four business units, the company’s matrix structure has nine geographical areas, or regions, with a view to supporting its capability to remain close to local markets and customers and to foster a more efficient and effective operating management.
Battaini said: “I am very proud and honoured of my appointment as chief executive and general manager.
“Aware of the great responsibility they have entrusted me with, I wish to thank all the shareholders for their trust and support.
“I am certain that, thanks to the team of extraordinary managers who will work with me, we will be able to support our ambitions and the challenges we take on as market leaders.
“Our people’s competence and passion and our new organisation will allow us to be increasingly effective on the market and also to welcome with enthusiasm Encore team.”
