Timeline
On July 18, 2019, Zipse was appointed chairman of the Board (CEO), effective 16 August 2019. He was described by Norbert Reithofer, chairman of the supervisory board, as "a decisive strategic and analytical leader".
Zipse has announced BMW’s increase in their joint venture with BMW Brilliance in China. He supports BMW’s expansions towards e-mobility production capacities, stating: "In the future, every BMW Group plant in Europe will be equipped to produce electrified as well as conventional vehicles."
Zipse is an advocate of experimenting and pioneering new technologies within the BMW group. Supporting the use of exoskeleton vests for workers at BMW's plant in Spartanburg, he stated: "We take out all opportunities to try something new, which we haven’t done so far. If the idea works in Spartanburg, we go somewhere else."
On May 13, 2015, he was appointed to the board of management of BMW AG, succeeding former chairman Harald Krüger; Zipse moved up to that position from a management role in product strategy and running the Mini assembly plant in England. His primary responsibility in that board role was for production. One news report summarized his achievement as: "Under Zipse's watch, BMW's efficient production network, which he expanded in Hungary, China and the U.S., has helped the company deliver industry-leading profit margins despite its relatively small scale".

From 1992 to 1994, he worked as a project engineer in technology development. From 1994 to 2006, he held various leadership positions in development, production and production planning in Munich and South Africa. From 2007 to 2008 he was the plant manager at the Mini-plant Oxford. From 2009 to 2012, he was head of technical planning before becoming head of group planning and production strategy from 2012 to May 2015.
