Martin Drasch is to become the new Chairman of the Management Board at Schuler.
The CEO of Reutlingen-based mechanical engineering company Manz AG will take up his new position on October 1, 2024.
“We are very pleased to be able to fill this important position within the Andritz Group,” says CEO Dr. Joachim Schönbeck.
“The market situation in the automotive and supplier industry is currently quite challenging. We are therefore fortunate to have found a successor in Martin Drasch, who brings extensive knowledge and experience in the automotive industry as well as in-depth industry knowledge for the future topics of electromobility and battery production. I am convinced that he will set the right course for Schuler.” “I am honored to take over the leadership of Schuler,” explains Martin Drasch.
“Schuler is a top innovative company with great potential in the field of battery production. I am therefore looking forward to this new task.”
The 49-year-old has been CEO of Manz AG, which employs around 1,400 people, since 2018.
Drasch built up the Mobility & Battery Solutions division there and launched a cooperation on the topic of “turnkey battery factories” with the companies Dürr and Grob.
