The Board of Directors of ORIOR AG has named Andreas Lindner the new CFO and a member of the Executive Committee of the ORIOR Group.

Andreas Lindner (1965) is Swiss and currently serves as CFO and a member of the Executive Board of the Ricola Group in Laufen (Basel). Andreas Lindner holds a degree in economics from the University of Basel and began his professional career at the pharmaceuticals company Roche, where he held various finance-related positions in Basel, Buenos Aires and Montevideo. Before joining Ricola in 2008, he had previously also served as CFO of Mövenpick Fine Foods Division and as CFO of AO Foundation / Synthes Technology AG. His thorough and sound financial knowledge, his strategic skills and many years of experience as CFO of internationally operating Swiss companies with long and rich tradition are quite exceptional.
