Susanne Russell
Administrative Director
Susanne Russell, born in Neuenkirchen in the Lüneburg Heath in 1963, has been managing the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Garching and Greifswald since January 2022. When she took office, she already knew the institute well: since 2018, she had been supporting the management as a freelance interim manager in modernising the administration. Her expertise in commercial corporate management and process optimisation, human resources and in the field of digitalisation had already taken Susanne Russell to scientific institutions before, as well as to a wide range of industrial and service companies for which she worked.
