David Burritt
American businessman
David Boyd Burritt (born c. 1955) is an American businessman who is the CEO of U.S. Steel. Prior to joining U.S. Steel, Burritt spent over three decades at Caterpillar Inc. As head of U.S. Steel, Burritt has overseen the reopening of the Granite City Works steel mill, the acquisition of Big River Steel, and investments in sustainable steel production. However, his recent decision to sell U.S. Steel to a Japanese company has drawn criticism from the United Steelworkers union and from two U.S. senators, who referred to the attempt to sell the company as a "repulsive conflict of interest."
Early life
Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Burritt earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting from Bradley University in 1977 and an M.B.A. from the University of Illinois in 1990.
Career
Burritt has been CEO of U.S. Steel since 2017. Before this, he held various leadership positions at the company, including president and chief operating officer (2017) and CFO (2013-2017). Before joining U.S. Steel, Burritt spent 32 years at Caterpillar, where he was the company's CFO.
During his tenure as CEO, Burritt oversaw the reopening of the Granite City Works steel mill in Illinois in 2018. He also led the ratification of a new four-year contract with the United Steelworkers in 2018. In 2021, U.S. Steel completed its acquisition of Big River Steel, a move that Burritt described as creating "the first 'Best of Both' integrated and mini-mill steel company." This acquisition followed an initial investment by U.S. Steel in Big River Steel in 2019. Years later, Burritt announced that Big River Steel Mill became the first ResponsibleSteel-certified site in North America and said, “This marks an important milestone on our journey to build a more sustainable future for our customers, company, colleagues, communi
