Rubis Announces New Leadership and Board Enhancements
In a significant move to enhance its governance structure, Rubis has announced the proposal for the appointment of two new Managing Partners. This initiative reflects the company's commitment to ensuring a smooth succession as it prepares for the future. The appointments are under the supervision of the current Supervisory Board members, showcasing a well-planned approach to leadership transition.
New Managing Partners Set to Join the Team
The General Partners of Rubis recently revealed plans to appoint Jean-Christian Bergeron and Marc Jacquot as Managing Partners, pending approval from the upcoming Shareholders’ Meeting. This strategic decision comes as part of a well-thought-out succession plan initiated by the founders, Gilles Gobin and Jacques Riou. Their vision is to ensure continuity and stability within the company's Management Board.
Jean-Christian Bergeron: A Proven Leader
Jean-Christian Bergeron takes on his role as CEO of Rubis Énergie, the group’s energy distribution segment, after an extensive career in the oil industry spanning over three decades. He has built a remarkable reputation at TotalEnergies, excelling in numerous senior roles across different countries. His leadership is expected to invigorate Rubis with a renewed focus on energy solutions and innovation.
Marc Jacquot: A Financial Expert
Marc Jacquot brings over 20 years of finance experience to the table, previously serving as CFO of Rubis Terminal JV. His diverse background in finance, along with his corporate expertise, positions him as a key player in steering the company’s operations forward. With Marc onboard, Rubis is set to strengthen its financial strategies and governance metrics.
Transitioning Leadership Smoothly
As part of the leadership transition, both Gilles Gobin and Jacques Riou are set to step down from their positions on the Management Board after the forthcoming Shareholders' Meeting. This planned transition illustrates the commitment of Rubis to maintaining a stable leadership pipeline while fostering a culture of accountability and performance.
Strengthening Governance at Rubis
The recent steps taken to fortify the Supervisory Board’s missions reflect Rubis’ determination to uphold governance standards that are aligned with international best practices. Under the guidance of Nils Christian Bergene, the independent Chairman, significant revisions have been made to the internal rules governing the Supervisory Board and its Committees. This revitalization includes a more structured approach towards strategic oversight and decision-making.
Enhanced Board Engagement
The internal amendments advocate for a proactive stance in providing opinions on key strategic operations and maintaining regular updates on the company's overarching goals. The establishment of a comprehensive succession planning framework showcases the Group’s dedication to nurturing leadership qualities across all levels.
