He became president of the union in 2007, and was also elected as president of the International Metalworkers' Federation, then moving to its successor, the IndustriALL Global Union.

In 2012, Huber retired from IG Metall, becoming deputy chair of the board of Volkswagen. In 2015, he served as acting chair, in which post he dealt with the fallout from the Volkswagen emissions scandal. He served on the board of Audi for nearly twenty years, retiring in 2018.
