About Julien Hueber

Julien Hueber is the Chief Executive Officer of Nexans, the listed industrial group specialized in cables and connectivity solutions for electrification. His appointment was announced by the Board of Directors in October 2025, succeeding Christopher Guérin with immediate effect. Since January 2026, he has chaired Nexans’ Executive Committee, which has been reshaped to support stronger growth, greater competitiveness, and sharper operational execution across the group. He also serves as President of the Nexans Foundation, underscoring the breadth of his governance responsibilities. Before becoming CEO, Hueber served as Executive Managing Director of PWR Grid & Connect Europe, a EUR 2.6 billion business spanning 23 manufacturing plants. That role placed him at the center of one of Nexans’ most important industrial and commercial divisions, giving him extensive experience in large-scale operations, multi-site management, customer-driven execution, and strategic delivery in a demanding European environment. Under his leadership, Nexans has introduced a new executive organization designed to simplify the management model, strengthen market proximity, improve industrial efficiency, and accelerate external growth through M&A. The company has also emphasized its ambition to operate as a global pure player in electrification, with a stronger focus on electrical infrastructure, growth markets, and expansion in North America. His early tenure has therefore been defined by a clear emphasis on execution discipline, leadership alignment, and organizational transformation. Hueber’s profile is that of an experienced industrial executive, commercially minded and operationally focused, well positioned to steer a listed electrification leader through its next phase of international development and performance improvement.
