Once the handover period is completed, I look forward to focusing on my board mandates and advising businesses in their transition management."

"I am very much looking forward to my new task and would like to thank the Board of Directors for the trust they have placed in me," says Florian Faber. "We see great challenges, but even greater potential for MCH Group, and I look forward to leading the company into the future together with our more than 700 employees.
