Wilo extends CEO’s contract to 2025

In an early contract extension, Wilo SE’s supervisory board has unanimously decided to extend the appointment of Oliver Hermes as CEO of the Wilo Group until 30 June 2025.

Hermes has been a member of Wilo SE’s Executive Board since 1 October 2006 and the chairman of the Wilo-Foundation’s Board of Trustees since April 2019. “The decision by the Supervisory Board to extend the contract early takes into account the highly positive development of the Wilo Group over the past years,” explained Prof Dr Norbert Wieselhuber, chairman of the Wilo supervisory board. “Mr Hermes represents nine consecutive years of record success, an intensified globalisation strategy, and the digital transformation of the Wilo Group. The early extension of his contract signals leadership continuity and provides a fundamental basis for the continuing successful development of the company.”

“I am deeply grateful for the continued trust placed in me by the Supervisory Board,” said Hermes. “My goal is to continue to strengthen the Wilo Group and to lead it into the future, sustainably continuing the successful journey this company has been on nearly 150 years.”
