He began his career as the finance director of a steel mill, later buying most of the company’s shares himself and became general director. He built a conglomerate, Severstal, acquiring automakers, coal companies, ports and transportation companies.

Forbes reporter Paul Klebnikov, suggested in a magazine article in 2004 that Mordashov had taken ownership of Severstal by ousting his former boss. Klebnikov also alleged that Mordashov had used the company’s steel profits to buy up shares originally issued for its staff. Mordashov insisted in the same article that “we never seized anything, we never twisted anyone’s arm, we never used state organs or corruption”.
After divorcing his first wife, Mordashov was alleged to have ensured that she received no financial settlement, despite his wealth. She was reportedly left with only a small, rented apartment and a second-hand Lada.[1] He has since remarried and has four children.
