Albie van Buel, head of global procurement at leading wind-energy firm Vestas, has decided to resign from his post, effective April 1, the company has announced.

He will be replaced by Keith Forsyth, who has been with Vestas for more than ten years, holding positions within global procurement and leading strategic cross-functional activities across Vestas, the company informed.

Passing on the global procurement division’s leadership at the present time is appropriate to continue developing the global procurement organisation at Vestas and delivering on future challenges and opportunities, the company noted.
