Vecoplan appoints Michael Lambert to board

Germany-based Vecoplan AG has appointed Michael Lambert to its management board, effective April 1.

Lambert has been responsible for the company’s commercial operations since 2014 and is manager of its European subsidiaries. In this capacity, he supports Werner Berens, who has been CEO of Vecoplan since 2012, and oversees Vecoplan’s divisions and supply chain activities.

Lambert, 40, has a degree in business administration and has successfully held a number of management positions. In 2008, he assumed the post of commercial director in the Saar-Gummi Group and in 2011 he became manager of the group’s nonautomotive business. January 2014, Lambert came to Vecoplan, where he was appointed as CFO, and worked closely with Berens to reposition the Vecoplan Group and place it on a sound footing, the company says.

“The appointment of Michael Lambert to the management board of Vecoplan AG was the logical consequence of his dedication and performance,” says Andreas Krause, chairman, Vecoplan’s supervisory board. “With this strong, well coordinated pair at the helm, Vecoplan AG is well prepared for further expansion and profitable growth. I look forward to working with him.”
