The date for appointing the new head of The Industrial Urals-The Polar Urals Corporation has not been set yet. At the moment, former Deputy GD Remir Mukumov is still the corporation’s acting General Director.

‘I don’t think the fact that the corporation does not have a GD at the moment is an issue. The company’s real problem is the need to launch its projects quite soon,’ Plenipotentiary Representative of Russian Federation President in Ural Federal District Nikolai Vinnichenko said at a press conference in Yekaterinburg.

‘Nevertheless, we can’t make mistakes in choosing the top executive. We are currently shaping the management team; what matters is not who is at the top but whether these managers can be efficient together,’ he noted.
