Biography

Juergen is an Industrialist and a strong advocate for the acceleration of clean power generation and the green re-industrialisation of UK’s economy. Juergen served as the former Chief Executive of Siemens UK. Over his 33 year career with Siemens, he held a number of senior roles within Siemens in the UK and Germany. During Juergen’s leadership at Siemens UK, the company played a pivotal role in UK’s industrial digitalisation, investment in transport infrastructure and the decarbonisation of the electricity system.

Juergen is Chair of Great British Energy and the co-foubder of vocL, a movement for progressive leaders. He advises tech start-up and scale-up businesses which are a key part of the industrial ecosystem creating the green 4th Industrial revolution.

Juergen takes a strong leadership role for UK’s renewable energy and manufacturing community. He has served on the Board of the Department of Business and Energy from 2014 to 2016. His work supported several previous Government Industrial Strategy initiatives. In 2017, he was asked by the then Government to lead a review into how to increase the digitalisation of the UK manufacturing sector, which has since led to the creation of the joint industry and government Made Smarter initiative driving advanced digitalisation, productivity and decarbonisation in the manufacturing sector.

In the Autumn of 2023, Juergen was commissioned by the Labour Party to lead in independent review on improving the state of the UK’s Urban and Rail public transport. The review was published in August 2024.

Juergen believes that businesses should play an active role in society and community matters and be champions for national progressive leadership. To further this mission, he co-founded the social enterprise vocL.

Juergen became a Fellow of the Royal Society in May 2022 and a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering in September 2017. He has also received honorary doctorates from several UK Universities.

He was awarded a CBE in the New Years honours list 2019.
