Mr May has held a number of senior positions in communications in the Vattenfall Group, among them a five-year assignment as head of group media relations in Stockholm, Sweden, and at present as head of communications for Vattenfall’s German subsidiary in Berlin.
Mr May replaces Reinhold Buttgereit, who has assumed a new position within Vattenfall in Berlin. Per Hallberg will assume the role of acting head of Vattenfall’s European affairs office until Mr May assumes his position.
Lars Josefsson, president and CEO of Vattenfall, said: As the European power markets integrate, energy policy is increasingly initiated at the EU level. It is important for Vattenfall to have an open, trustful and transparent dialog with key stakeholders in Brussels.
