Evonik appoints Yann d’Hervé as new head of Health Care business line

Yann d’Hervé will take over responsibility for the Health Care business at Evonik, effective July 1.

Yann d’Hervé, previously Head of the Care Solutions business line in Evonik’s Nutrition & Care division, will lead the Health Care business line as of July 1.

Yann d’Hervé holds an MSc in Chemistry and an MBA. He joined the former REXIM SAS (France) in 1996, where he worked in a number of different roles. REXIM is now part of the Health Care business line. In 2004, he moved to the U.S. to join what is today’s Oil Additives business line, working as a business analyst and subsequently as Global Business Director for Wax Modifiers. In 2011, the Health Care business line was formed and d’Hervé became Vice President, Sales & Services Americas. In 2015, he assumed the role as Vice President, Global Sales & Services before moving to Germany to lead the Care Solutions business line in 2020.

Yann has extensive experience in manufacturing, finance, marketing, application technology, sales and general management. He has managed international organizations, while being responsible for strategic alliances with key partners. Customer satisfaction and joint value creation are two cornerstones in d’Hervé’s approach to business.
