As of April 1, 2016, Jan Willem Jongert, 51, will join the Executive Board of Wacker Neuson SE. In his new role as Chief Sales Officer (CSO), Mr. Jongert will be responsible for the global sales, service, logistics and marketing activities of the Wacker Neuson Group. At the start of 2013, Cem Peksaglam took on the responsibilities of the outgoing CSO in addition to his own mandate as Chairman of the Executive Board (CEO).

Under the leadership of Mr. Peksaglam, the Wacker Neuson Group has gone from strength to strength, reporting record revenues in recent years - and 2015 was no exception. The company has now completed realignment of group strategy and is in the process of strengthening the Executive Board with this new addition. The Executive Board of Wacker Neuson SE will have four members following the addition of Mr. Jongert.

Martin Lehner (member responsible for research and development, procurement, production and quality) and G-nther Binder (member responsible for finance and IT) will retain their previous areas of responsibility.
