Bühler CFO to Retire in September, Company Names New CFO
UZWIL, Switzerland — Bühler announced that Andreas Herzog, who has held the CFO position at the company for 17 years, is retiring effective Sept. 1, 2019. His successor is Mark Macus, who has previously worked for Bühler and who currently serves as CFO of the Vitra Group.
Herzog has made a substantial contribution to professionalizing and globalizing the financial organization of Bühler. “Withdrawing from the CFO position of Bühler after 17 years is an emotional moment for me. Bühler is a unique organization, in which the family spirit is still alive. But the company must renew itself permanently, and this also impacts my own function,” said Herzog. In the future, Herzog plans to devote his time and energy to various board mandates and to supporting Bühler in its efforts to develop new business models and its commitment to start-ups. “We thank Andy cordially for his untiring and passionate commitment, to which Bühler owes much of its success,” said Chairman of the Board Calvin Grieder.
