Carlos Mateos Duran has been appointed EMEA financial director of juwi. He joined juwi South Africa in 2019 as the Chief Financial Officer for ZA. He later assumed responsibility for the EMEA Cost Controlling function. Given current market and growth expectations within the EMEA Region, there was a need to appoint an EMEA Finance Director, and it was a natural progression for Duran to occupy the position, effective 1 December 2020.

Duran is a finance professional with a solid accounting and audit background, reporting and financial experience in an international environment, as well as having extensive experience in project finance, cash flow management, budgeting and forecasting.  His renewable energy experience was gained at Abengoa Solar in Spain and in South Africa, where he was instrumental in setting up the office and finance function in his role of Chief Financial Officer, while managing a portfolio of Concentrated Solar Power projects in excess of 1 Billion USD.  He holds a Business Administration Degree specialized in Accounting and Auditing.

“I am very thankful to juwi for trusting my capabilities to assume responsibility for this position and I am looking forward to continue contributing to the juwi Group as EMEA Finance Director. It is an exciting time with lots happening in South Africa, Greece and Italy. I understand that this role will come with major challenges and added responsibility, but we have a very capable finance team across the Business Unit which will make my task much easier”, says Duran.

“In the relatively short time that Carlos has been, firstly, a key part of the ZA management team and more recently with an expanded EMEA scope with respect to cost controlling in the region, he has added tremendous value not only on the financial management and reporting side but also due to his keen interest in and contribution to the commercial aspects of our business.  I look forward to the ongoing engagement with Carlos in the EMEA region, and wish him the best success in this role as EMEA Financial Director”, says Greg Austin, regional director for the juwi EMEA region. 

As the EMEA FD, Duran will form part of the EMEA Management team and the International Management team.
