German wind developer PNE has shaken up its leadership team to reinforce its move into emerging international markets.
Chief executive Markus Lesser (pictured) will take on heading international development and chief financial officer Jörg Klowat will manage the Shared Services division.
Board member Kurt Stürken, who has been responsible for international development, is leaving the company in September 2019.
PNE said it will strengthen the management at divisional level – directly below the Board – to “advance the further rapid implementation of the ‘scale-up’ strategy”.
“A first step towards strengthening the divisions has already been taken with the appointment of Dr. Rolf Bungart, who has been responsible for onshore project development in Germany since the beginning of the year,” PNE said.
Further support at the divisional management level for project development in international markets and entry into new markets are planned for the short term, it said.
