Peter Grossmann has extensive experience in the energy industry, with senior leadership roles in growth and business development, engineering, R&D, customer service and manufacturing with Siemens, Siemens Energy and RCM Technologies in the US, France and Germany.

Dr Thorsten Rösner brings more than 25 years of international consulting, business development and operational leadership experience across environmental and engineering services. He has held senior roles with TAUW, WSP, Bureau Veritas and AECOM, leading multidisciplinary teams, managing business units and developing services for international and corporate clients across Germany and wider European markets.

The appointments strengthen our ability to bring together environmental, engineering and advisory expertise to help clients move projects forward with confidence

Mott MacDonald’s managing director of energy for Europe, Claudio Tassistro, commented: “Germany is a key market for the energy transition, with clients facing increasingly complex challenges around consenting, delivery and the reuse of industrial land. Mott MacDonald’s international experience in these areas will help support effective local solutions to these issues.

“Peter and Thorsten’s mix of technical depth, commercial leadership and international client experience will complement our offering as we expand our support in this space in Germany, as well as across Europe.
