Poux-Guillaume was president and CEO of Alstom Grid, acquired effective Nov. 2 by General Electric Co. (NYSE: GE) from Alstom, from 2011 to 2015, Sulzer said. He will take over from interim CEO Thomas Dittrich who will return full-time to his role as finance chief after taking temporary charge in August following the departure of Klaus Stahlmann.
