The supervisory board of Rolls-Royce Power Systems has confirmed the extension of Dr Jörg Stratmann’s contract as chairman of the board of management. The new term will run until 14 November 2027.

“Dr Jörg Stratmann leads Rolls-Royce Power Systems with a results-oriented approach and has shaped the strategic positioning with a steady and consistent hand,” says Jasmin Staiblin, chairwoman of the supervisory board of Rolls-Royce Power Systems AG. “The supervisory board is looking forward to continuing the joint and successful journey of Rolls-Royce Power Systems AG with him and the entire team also in the future.”

“The extension of Dr Jörg Stratmann’s contract is a signal of stability in a phase of change,” adds Thomas Bittelmeyer, deputy chairman of the supervisory board.

Stratmann joined the company two and a half years ago. Since then, the organisation has undertaken a strategic realignment, introduced a suite of performance optimisation measures and reported record results.

“In the past two and a half years, we have realigned Rolls-Royce Power Systems strategically, implemented numerous performance-enhancing measures, and achieved record results, significantly advancing the company,” says Stratmann.

“I look forward to continuing this journey. I would like to thank the supervisory board for its trust and am excited to continue working with the board of management, the broader leadership group, and our highly committed and skilled global workforce.”

In June 2025, Rolls-Royce announced a new addition to its mtu Series 2000 engine line-up, introducing the 12-cylinder 12V2000 M96Z model. The new engine is scheduled to be available from 2026 for use in fast yachts, patrol vessels, police boats and sportfishing craft.
