In German it says: "Vorstandsvorsitzender", that's not exactly CEO, perhaps "chairman"?
Isn't it you who will soon present the answers?
I don't know if this article is accurate when it lists Lynn Calder as having been with Ineos for six years. I checked out Ms. Calder on LinkedIn, and according to her profile, she has only been with Ineos for two years (working with Ineos Composites). Before that she was at a venture capital firm in Houston, TX. If I had to speculate, I would agree with a post made previously by emax, that she is more of a numbers person, and less of a car person. But maybe she is both...Here are some more information about the leading staff of IA:

Car manufacturer Ineos Automotive has appointed Lynn Calder as chief executive officer (CEO). Her appointment completes Ineos Automotive's new, strengthened leadership team, marking the transition from development project to normal business operations, according to a press release.
In other personnel news, Hans-Peter Pessler, a former senior executive at Magna Steyr, which helped develop the Ineos Grenadier off-road vehicle, joins the company as COO. He is responsible for all technical and operational areas. Phillippe Steyer remains president of Ineos Automotive SAS, responsible for manufacturing, safety, health and environmental management, and supply chain.
Ashley Reed, Chief Executive Officer of Ineos Automotive Limited, says: "We are committed to establishing a long-term presence in the automotive sector. In managing the design program and overseeing the production build, the team has done a great job. Now, as the company transitions into full operations, Lynn Calder and Hans-Peter Pessler will lead the next phase in the company's development."
"It's an exciting time to take the reins," adds Lynn Calder. "The team and Grenadier have already come a long way. And yet, we are just at the beginning of building a global automotive company. I enjoy taking on challenges, and given the ambitious plans for the future, I'm looking forward to the adventures ahead."

This how most companies are set up.Seems to be a fairly 'standard' approach in establishing an automotive 'corporate' entity with a holding company at the top controlling several entities one of which is the entity actually manufacturing the Grenadier. Calder's role is strategic direction and running the business at a profit while Pessler's headache is worrying about the millions of day to day interactions to keep the lights on and assembly lines moving. I don't envy them. I'll be very happy to take delivery and disappear into the desert chasing my 'bucket list' destinations
I love those Pinzgauer’s. Very capable but very noisy vehicles.
Love the fact he is still waiting for his. VIP have to wait like the rest of us.
