“Roy Harvey is an excellent leader to continue the
transformation of our Global Primary Products Group into one of the
industry’s strongest global competitors,” said Klaus Kleinfeld,
Alcoa Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “He has a strong track
record of success working across the upstream businesses - in
mining, refining, smelting and casting operations – in Europe,
South America and North America. Roy’s experience and proven
performance will be invaluable as Alcoa prepares to launch the
upstream business as a public company.”
During his career, Harvey has also held several key corporate
and group-level business assignments. He served as Director of
Corporate Treasury and as head of Investor Relations and most
recently he had oversight for all talent programs for Alcoa’s
60,000 worldwide employees as well as responsibility for the
Company’s global health, safety and environmental programs.
Harvey graduated from Columbia University School of Engineering
and earned Master Degrees in Finance and International Business
from the Wharton School of Business at the University of
Pennsylvania.
Kleinfeld also thanked Bob Wilt for his 16 years of service to
Alcoa. “As President of GPP U.S. during the economic recession, Bob
led Alcoa’s upstream facilities in the U.S. through one of the most
dramatic downturns in the history of the aluminum industry. Most
recently, as GPP President, Bob led the restructuring of Alcoa’s
global primary portfolio and oversaw a wide range of productivity
improvements that substantially increased the global
competitiveness of Alcoa’s upstream businesses.”
