Christian Harm becomes Chief Financial Officer
The Supervisory Board of the Kion Group has appointed Christian Harm to the Executive Board with immediate effect.
He takes over the position of CFO from Marcus Wassenberg, who is leaving the company on the best of terms and at his own request. Harm has proven himself as a leader within Kion - and its predecessor company - for over 20 years and has played a key role in the company's key strategic projects such as the IPO of Kion (2013) and the acquisition of Dematic (2016).
Harm (55) will work with the entire Executive Board to increase the Group's profitability and implement the KION 2027 strategy. From 2006 to 2012, Harm was Head of Group Procurement and subsequently took over as Head of Group Strategy before assuming responsibility for the finances of Kion ITS EMEA, the Kion Group's most profitable business, first as Executive Vice President Finance and Operations in 2019 and then as Executive Vice President Finance from 2021.
