Dr. Timo Berger will succeed José Carlos Álvarez Tobar as Chief Sales Officer of the Weidmüller Group in Detmold on 1 September 2019.
From March 1, 2019, he will be working more closely for six months with Chief Marketing & Sales Officer (CMSO) José Carlos Álvarez Tobar, who will be retiring after a total of 40 years at Weidmüller and around three years as Chief Sales Officer. Dr. Timo Berger has been with the company since 2005 and has been responsible for sales in Germany and the Central Europe region as Managing Director and Regional Manager for two years. From September 2019, he will complete the three-member Executive Board team with CEO and CFO Jörg Timmermann and Chief Technology Officer Volker Bibelhausen.
"José Carlos Álvarez Tobar has led the Sales division of the Executive Board with extraordinary success over the last three years, making a significant contribution to Weidmüller's global success," comments Christian Gläsel, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Weidmüller Group. "On behalf of the owner family and the entire company, we would also like to thank him for introducing his successor Dr. Timo Berger to his new role step by step over the coming months. A smooth transition that will ensure the continuity of our global sales work."
"The planned promotion of Dr. Timo Berger to the Executive Board of the Weidmüller Group is another important building block in our long-term corporate and management strategy. Dr. Berger combines the highest level of sales and technological expertise with his 13 years of experience in various product divisions in our company and, thanks to the transition phase together with José Carlos Álvarez, ensures maximum continuity in times of accelerated change among our customers and in our markets," explains Gläsel.
