Amtel-Vredestein Adds Petr Zolotarev to Executive Board
Amtel-Vredestein N.V. had confirmed that it has nominated Russian Machines CEO and Gaz Group Chairman Petr Zolotarev to its Executive Board. Acting Vice-President at Yukos Refining and Marketing, Vadim Pesochinsky, was also nominated to the Executive Board. Both appointments are to be effective July 1st, once they are approved at the company’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) scheduled for 30 June in Amsterdam.
Zolotarev is expected to succeed Alexei Gurin as head of the Company. Gurin, who joined the Company in 2001 and rose to the post of CEO in 2004, plans to leave the Group to pursue new opportunities as soon as the terms of his resignation are concluded — which is expected to be at the time of the Company’s AGM.
