Heidelberger Decides on New Corporate Structure

Marcel Kiessling appointed to the Management Board

In line with this reorganization, responsibilities within the Management Board are also being rearranged. Responsibility for the Heidelberg Equipment division will lie with Stephan Plenz, who was previously the member of the Management Board responsible for technology and operations. The Heidelberg Supervisory Board appointed Marcel Kiessling to the Management Board with effect from January 1, 2010. He will take charge of the Heidelberg Services division. Kiessling has been working for Heidelberg for 20 years. He progressed from heading up a business unit to being in charge of sales in Germany, and since September 2004 he has been responsible for the Heidelberg Americas sales region. From January 1, 2010, the Management Board will therefore comprise CEO Bernhard Schreier, who will be in charge of the international sales network, CFO Dirk Kaliebe, who will continue to be in charge of the Heidelberg Financial Services division, Stephan Plenz, and Marcel Kiessling.
