U.S. President Donald Trump is considering John Hurley, a senior official at the U.S. Treasury, for the role of ambassador to Germany, the Financial Times reported Friday.
Hurley, who currently holds the position of undersecretary of the Treasury for terrorism and financial intelligence, has been interviewed by the White House for roles including ambassador to Germany, according to the FT report.
The post has been held on an interim basis by a career diplomat since July 2024. According to the Financial Times report, no decision has yet been made on whether Hurley will get the German ambassador job, and he remains in his position at the Treasury.
