Ulbrich Stainless Steels & Special Metals Embarks on Next Chapter with Jon Ulbrich as CEO
Ulbrich Stainless Steels & Special Metals, a leader in precision metals for over a century, announces a significant leadership transition as the company prepares for its next chapter of continued success and growth.
After 47 years of extraordinary service to the daily operations of Ulbrich, Chris Ulbrich will be stepping down as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and assume a full-time position as Chairman of the Board of Directors. As the company continues to expand, more time is required at the board level to support strategic initiatives and ensure Ulbrich’s future success.
Effective January 1, 2025, Jon Ulbrich has been appointed CEO by Ulbrich’s Board of Directors. Jon previously served as President of Ulbrich’s Service Center Group.
“Ensuring a smooth leadership transition has been a top priority, and we are confident this change will support Ulbrich’s continued growth for generations to come,” said Chris Ulbrich. “The art of transitioning a privately-owned business is critical to its long-term success, and Jon is the right leader to carry Ulbrich forward.”
Jon Ulbrich echoed this sentiment, stating:
I am honored to continue building on the strong foundation that has been laid. With the exceptional talent and dedication of the Ulbrich team, I am excited for the opportunities that lie ahead.
As the company begins its next century, this transition is part of a broader strategic effort to ensure a bright future for its employees, customers, and stakeholders.
