Johann Meier

As Managing Director at Power Electronics, I led the Mobility Division’s transformation and growth, positioning the company as a key player in the EV infrastructure and energy solutions sector. I successfully scaled sales from 2022 to 2023 by more than 300%, surpassing €100M, launched the Megawatt Charging System (MCS) to enable ultra-fast charging for heavy-duty vehicles, and established a new factory for DC Charging production to meet the growing demand for sustainable mobility solutions.

As Managing Director and Vice President at MAHLE Electronics, I played a key role in business expansion, operational efficiency, and strategic leadership. I led P&L management for a €205M business unit, overseeing 1,400 employees across production and R&D sites. I successfully drove revenue growth from €72M to €205M, developed and executed global procurement strategies exceeding €1,3 B, and led post-merger integration, ensuring seamless transitions and operational improvements.

As Vice President Purchasing at MAHLE, I successfully transformed the purchasing organization from a regional to a global structure, optimizing supplier consolidation and introducing category management with a lead-buying strategy. These initiatives led to substantial and sustainable cost savings. Additionally, I implemented a supplier development program that significantly improved both delivery quality and logistics performance, fostering stronger supplier partnerships and operational efficiency.
