Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy has announced Marc Baecker as CEO of its offshore business.

Becker served as Managing Director for Germany and Head of Offshore Sales and Projects at Siemens Gamesa before leaving the company in early 2020. In the latter role, and previously as COO of Siemens Wind Power, Becker played a key role in building the company´s strong leadership position in the rapidly growing offshore segment.

Becker will be based in Hamburg and start his new role on February 1. Pierre Bauer will continue as interim CEO in the meantime. "I am delighted to bring Marc back to the company to lead offshore," said Andreas Nauen, CEO of Siemens Gamesa.
