Executive leadership team

The Executive Leadership Team (ELT) – composed of six Executive Vice Presidents (EVP) that are led by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) – is responsible for the management of the company, including proposing the overall strategy of Umicore to the Supervisory Board; operational and day-to day management; screening and addressing the various risks and opportunities that Umicore may encounter in the short, medium or long term; defining and applying Umicore’s ESG approach; and legal representation of the company with respect to third parties. 

The Executive Leadership Team approves the strategies of individual business units and corporate divisions and monitors their implementation. Final accountability for all aspects of Umicore’s business and performance lies with the ELT.
