Change in VÍTKOVICE STEEL management

A change in VÍTKOVICE STEEL management will take place on 1 January, 2022. Dmitrij Ščuka will be replaced at the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors and General Manager by Radek Strouhal, current Chief Financial Officer and member of the Board of Directors.

The Supervisory Board of VÍTKOVICE STEEL decided to change the composition of the Board of Directors. Dmitrij Ščuka’s term of office comes to an end as well as his engagement with VÍTKOVICE STEEL. Radek Strouhal, who has been a member of the Board of Directors since January 2019, was elected as the new Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Board will announce the composition of the company’s statutory body in a few days.
The above was communicated by the company management with all key partners so that a smooth transition is prepared.

“The change in the Board of Directors will not result in any substantial impact on the company operation. We will still pursue our focus on our long-term priorities, especially the quality of our products and services and strengthening of our competitiveness. I would like to acknowledge Mr. Ščuka’s more than 10 years’ engagement with our company, highly professional approach and remarkable personal contribution to both VÍTKOVICE STEEL and Czech industry,” said Radek Strouhal, the new Chairman of the Board of Directors and General Manager of VÍTKOVICE STEEL.
