Evonik Strengthens Its Management Team in North America

Guido Skudlarek has studied business administration and engineering in Germany and the United Kingdom and holds a doctorate from the University of Bayreuth (Germany).

He began his professional career in 2001 at the consulting firm McKinsey & Company, before joining Evonik in 2013.

Skudlarek was in charge of the specialty chemicals within the Silica business unit and advanced its overall growth strategy, such managing the antitrust review process for the acquisition of the division of J.M. Huber Corp. dedicated to silica.

More recently, he served as Head of Operations Excellence at the headquarters of the company in Essen (Germany), designing and implementing global transformation programmes in production and supply chain management.

“I am looking forward to working with the region’s excellent team to expand Evonik’s business in North America,” has declared Skudlarek.

Bonnie Tully studied mechanical engineering at Texas A&M (United States of America). She possesses over thirty years of working experience and is also the executive sponsor of groW Americas, the Employee Resource Group for women of Evonik.

In the new role, she will oversee the expanding operations in a region that recorded €3.8 billion in revenue in fiscal 2023 (a quarter of the Group’s total).

“I am an engineer at heart, and I cannot wait to again dive into the operational details of our great company,” has commented Tully.
