Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Stuttgart (Germany) - The Supervisory Board of #Daimler AG at its meeting on April 23, 2021 extended the appointments of management board members #martindaum and #haraldwilhelm.

The appointments of #martindaum (61), as member of the board of management for #Daimler AG and Chief Executive of #Daimler #truck AG, were extended until 2025.
Martin Daum has been a member of the #Daimler AG management board since 2017 after serving as President and CEO of #Daimler Trucks North America. Following the planned spin-off of a majority stake in #Daimler #truck AG, #martindaum plans to leave the management board of #Daimler AG and to take on the role of Chief Executive Officer at stock market listed #Daimler #truck company. The spin-off is subject to shareholder approval at an extraordinary general meeting of #Daimler AG in autumn 2021.

The appointment of #haraldwilhelm (55), management board member of #Daimler AG, and responsible for Finance, Controlling and #Daimler Mobility, was extended until 2027.
Harald Wilhelm has been a management board member since 2019 and was previously Chief Financial Officer of the Airbus Group. Harald Wilhelm’s appointment as management board member responsible for Finance and Controlling at Mercedes-Benz AG was also extended.

„Martin Daum and #haraldwilhelm have done excellent work in the past years,” said Supervisory Board Chairman Bernd Pischetsrieder. „We are convinced that they will continue their good work to enable the transformation of #Daimler AG into two separate, successful, stock market listed companies.”

Furthermore, Joe Kaeser was yesterday appointed to the supervisory board of #Daimler #truck AG. It is envisaged that he will be proposed as the candidate for chairman of the supervisory board of the stock market listed #Daimler #truck company.
