As part of the development strategy to create a global corporate group, Dr Frank Naumann (CEO), Jochen Frank (CTO), Marcus Rausch (CFO) and Daniel Thomas (COO) form the new executive leadership team of Wevo-Chemie and Zelu Chemie. This step consolidates the group’s international presence, enables it to focus on product development and ensures the efficient use of organisational synergies.
New Chief Executive Officer Dr Naumann brings along extensive management experience in the chemical industry. After holding senior management positions at Henkel KGaA and Neste Oil, he was most recently CEO of the CHT Group in Tübingen, Germany, where he played a key role in driving the company’s international growth. His research and development as well as sales experience make him the ideal person to lead Wevo and Zelu into the next growth phase.
Jochen Frank, previously CEO of Wevo-Chemie, will have global responsibility for research and development as Chief Technology Officer. Marcus Rausch, former Chief Financial Officer of Wevo, is now taking on this role for both companies. Daniel Thomas, previously CEO of Zelu, will be coordinating group operations as Chief Operating Officer. The management team is based at the new Wevo-Chemie headquarters in Ostfildern-Kemnat.
