Dr. Timo Berger is Weidmüller's Chief Sales Officer
Dr. Timo Berger has been Chief Sales Officer (CSO) of the Weidmüller Group in Detmold since September 1, 2019. Together with CEO and CFO Jörg Timmermann and Volker Bibelhausen, CTO, he forms the three-person Executive Board team at the international electrical engineering specialist.
Dr. Berger has been with Weidmüller since 2005 and was most recently responsible for sales in Germany and the Central European region for three years as Managing Director and Regional Manager. He had already been working closely with his predecessor José Carlos Álvarez Tobar since March in preparation for his new management role. Álvarez Tobar is retiring after a total of 40 years and almost four years as Chief Sales Officer.
"The scheduled appointment 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. With his experience, Dr. Berger combines the highest level of sales and technological expertise. Thanks to the transition phase with José Carlos Álvarez, the greatest possible continuity is guaranteed in times of accelerated change among our customers and in our markets," commented Christian Gläsel, Chairman of the Group's Supervisory Board, at the Hannover Messe 2019.
