Vattenfall has appointed Sonja Müller-Dib as vice president of its business unit trading, effective 1 May 2026.
The company said Müller-Dib joins from Shell, where she has held senior leadership roles for more than 20 years across the European gas and power sector. Most recently, she served as managing director of Shell Energy Deutschland and general manager for B2B Germany.
According to Vattenfall, the appointment is intended to strengthen its market position and support the group’s ambition to enable fossil freedom.
Sjur Jensen, head of business area markets at Vattenfall, said Müller-Dib’s experience will be a strong asset for the company.
“We are very pleased to welcome Sonja to Vattenfall. Her commercial experience, broad value chain understanding and proven leadership will be key as we continue strengthening our market position and supporting Vattenfall’s ambition to enable fossil freedom,” Jensen said.
Müller-Dib said she was looking forward to joining the Swedish utility.
“I am delighted to join Vattenfall, one of Europe’s most important energy companies, recognised for its strong track record in transformation and decarbonisation,” she said.
“This role at Vattenfall’s trading unit is an exciting next chapter, and I can’t wait to contribute with my experience, energy and passion to the company’s future success.”
Vattenfall’s trading unit manages the group’s market access and trading activities, including hedging, sourcing and risk-taking, and operates trading floors in Hamburg and Stockholm.
