“After a comprehensive global search, Damián Gumpel was the clear choice to lead our Titanium Technologies business into the future. Damián’s proven track record of strategic vision, cost transformation, and commercial excellence within the chemical industry will strengthen the TT business,” said Denise Dignam, President and CEO of Chemours. “I am confident that under Damián’s leadership, our TT business will continue building on the success of the TT Transformation Plan and contribute significantly to Chemours’ Pathway to Thrive strategy."

Damián Gumpel joins Chemours with deep chemical industry leadership experience. At the Olin Corporation, he most recently served as Vice President, Corporate Strategy, helping to define a new corporate strategy and executing a joint venture and several M&A transactions. Previously, he led Olin’s global leading Epoxy business, where he delivered cost reductions and successfully executed a portfolio realignment, and Olin’s Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls business, where he led a business transformation that delivered record EBITDA improvement. At Dow Inc., he held several business leadership roles within Dow’s leading chlor-alkali and vinyls business.

“I am honored to lead Chemours Titanium Technologies, one of the most trusted and respected TiO2 businesses in the world,” said Gumpel. “Together, we will drive stronger operational performance and productivity while deepening Chemours’ reputation as a safe and great place to work for employees, trusted partner to our customers, suppliers and communities, and consistent value driver for shareholders.”

Chemours also announces that Matthew Abbott, Senior Vice President and Chief Enterprise Transformation Officer, has elected to leave the company to pursue a new opportunity, effective February 3, 2025.

“We thank Matt for his eight years of service, including stepping up as Interim Chief Financial Officer for Chemours last year. Matt served with the highest levels of integrity and partnership at an important inflection point for our company. For that, and his many lasting contributions to our business, we thank him and wish him well in his future endeavors,” said Denise Dignam.

With Abbott’s departure, Ms. Picho will now lead the newly organized Enterprise Enablement unit designed to accelerate the Operational Excellence and Growth Enablement pillars of Chemours’ Pathway to Thrive strategy. Her portfolio will include Procurement and key Centers of Excellence, including Manufacturing, Commercial, and Digital, with a mandate to improve Chemours’ Order to Cash and critical operational processes across the company. Ms. Picho brings over 40 years of business leadership spanning each of Chemours’ three business segments.

“Diane has long been one of the most trusted and admired executives at Chemours, with a comprehensive understanding of our company that will be an immense asset to the Chemours Executive Team. Her leadership of the Enterprise Enablement unit will be a key driver to realizing our full potential as Chemours,” said Dignam.
