Schneider Electric appoints Olivier Blum as CEO
Olivier Blum, a French Citizen (54 year old), is leading the fast growing and world-class Energy Management business of Schneider Electric, in all end markets, including Datacenters. Olivier has been a member of the Executive Committee since 2014.
Before his present role as technology and business leader of the largest business of Schneider Electric, he held a wide array of positions inside the Company. This includes corporate roles as Group Chief Strategy & Sustainability Officer, and previously Chief Human Resources Officer as well as diverse operational roles including 5 years as Country President of Greater India (now our third largest country), and 5 years as strategy and business leader in China.
Blum started his career with almost 10 years in sales, marketing and transformation program roles in France. Olivier has also been an AVEVA board director for the past 5 years, and has experienced the most important transformations of our Software business.
Jean-Pascal Tricoire, Chairman, stated: "I welcome Olivier Blum as our new CEO and I wish to thank Peter Herweck for leading Schneider Electric over the past 18 months. For more than 30 years, Olivier has been an outstanding and transformative leader at Schneider Electric, deeply understanding our business, our operating model and culture and focusing on future technology and strategic development, while delivering strong and consistent operational performance, as shown by the acceleration of Energy Management under his tenure. I have complete confidence in his ability to lead Schneider Electric in this new phase of focused acceleration, in line with the goals announced during the Capital Market Day."
The Board of Directors decided to remove from office Peter Herweck as Chief Executive Officer due to divergences in the execution of the company roadmap at a time of significant opportunities. Herweck has led for the last 18 months.
