Moscow, 11 October, 2022 - RUSAL, a leading global aluminium producer, announces the appointment of Roman Andryushin as RUSAL's Deputy CEO, Sales and Marketing Director. The appointment is supportive of the Company’s long-term strategy to grow and increase the Company’s presence in key markets.

In his new position, Roman Andryushin will be responsible for aluminium sales globally. Steve Hodgson, previously Sales and Marketing Director, will remain with RUSAL Marketing GmbH, supporting sales to the Company’s international consumers.

The organisation will be further strengthened by the appointment of Elias Sarkis as Export Sales Director, Deputy Sales and Marketing Director and Bob Katsiouleris as Market Development and Quality Director, both of whom will report to Roman Andryushin.

“Roman has worked at RUSAL for more than 20 years, he has vast experience in sales development and diversification in difficult market conditions. In view of the current turbulence in the global economy, the appointment of Roman will strengthen our position in key regions and promote our development in new areas”, said Evgenii Nikitin, General Director of RUSAL.

Roman Andryushin, Deputy CEO, Sales and Marketing Director, commented, “Despite suggestions to the contrary, our relationships with clients have remained professional and largely supportive of our ongoing supplies. The continued availability of our metal has a crucial stabilizing effect on the market, since the majority of the global aluminium industry continues to rely on our low carbon aluminium. It is clear that we will be facing new challenges, but together with our professional team, we can face any headwinds”.
