Supervisory Board Of Kassbohrer Gelandefahrzeug AG Appoints Two New Board Members.

The supervisory board of Kässbohrer Geländefahrzeug AG has appointed two new board members.

Dr Christian Oberwinkler will be responsible for Technology and Operations from March 1st, 2023. Christof Peer will take over the areas of sales, service and marketing from April 1st, 2023.

The past three years have had a strong impact on the company. Difficult framework conditions in the winter sports industry and in tourism due to climate and energy crises as well as the global pandemic have presented the company with completely new challenges. The Supervisory Board has therefore decided to expand the Executive Board from the previous two members to include another Executive Board department in order to meet the challenges effectively. The addition of personnel underscores the company's claim as the world market leader to offer its customers the best vehicles, products and solutions.

Christian Oberwinkler, 47 years old, will take over the Technology and Operations departments at Kässbohrer Geländefahrzeug AG. For many years he has managed the Austrian company Komptech from Frohnleiten, which specializes in machines, systems and solutions for the field of environmental technology.

Christof Peer, 44 years old, will be responsible for sales, service and marketing as a member of the Management Board. The trained electrical engineer brings with him extensive international sales and service experience in special vehicle construction from various professional positions - in particular in intelligent, customer-oriented solution concepts, electrification of vehicles and digitization solutions. Most recently as sales manager at Goldhofer AG, Memmingen.

Together with the previous board member Steffen Kaiser, who is responsible for the areas of finance, digitization, human resources and law, the board is well equipped with this composition.

Until the new board members joined, Rolf Glessing - former board member of Kässbohrer Geländefahrzeug AG - took over the areas of development, procurement, production, sales, service and marketing from Jens Rottmair as interim board member.
