The management floor of Robert Bürkle GmbH in Freudenstadt is newly formed: “With immediate effect, Dipl.-Kfm. Jürgen Müller and Dipl.-Wirtsch.-Ing. Olaf Hartwig strengthen the management of Robert Bürkle GmbH, Freudenstadt. As CFO, Jürgen Müller is responsible for the commercial area and finances. As COO, Olaf Hartwig manages production and materials management,” explains Dipl.-Ing. Jürgen Schröer. Olaf Rohrbeck continues to be the Managing Director responsible for Sales/Marketing and Technology (CSO/CTO). At the same time, Rohrbeck will represent the Freudenstadt company externally as spokesman of the management board.

The managing directors Müller and Hartwig are very experienced managers in their fields. They have worked successfully in various market-leading companies in the consulting, medical technology and automotive sectors. From his previous CEO position, Schröer will take over the chairmanship of the company’s advisory board in July to coordinate the medium and long-term orientation. At first he will concentrate especially on the further development and expansion of the important Bürkle location Shanghai. “The development in China is very promising for us”, says Schröer about his new task.

In close coordination and with the support of the Munich-based private equity shareholder Auctus Capital Partners, Bürkle’s management focuses on structural and organic dynamics. Essential product segments, such as surface finishing and press technologies, will be systematically expanded. “With the strengthened management structure we push the company development. Especially in the international markets we are gaining speed,” Rohrbeck presents core elements of the Bürkle course.
