Change of Executive Board at TRATON SE: Christian Levin becomes CEO, Annette Danielski becomes CFO

Under Matthias Gründler, TRATON became a globally oriented group through the Navistar transaction. Christian Schulz played the central role in the company's IPO in 2019. Other successes of Gründler and Schulz include the initiation of the planned charging joint venture with Daimler Truck and the Volvo Group and the partnership with TuSimple. In addition, Gründler and Schulz, together with their management team, have developed a new TRATON strategy in which the focus is on sustainable business and growth, the further creation of company value - e.g. through a significantly higher corporate commitment in China - and the expansion of innovative business models. This laid the foundation stone for the further direction of the company.

"We were able to implement the Global Champion Strategy faster than expected. This means that TRATON is now on stable footing internationally. The task now is to lead TRATON into a sustainable future beyond conventional business models and ways of thinking. With Christian Levin at the helm, the TRATON GROUP can now benefit even more from its lead brand Scania. Christian Levin is exactly the right person for this task and I wish him and the entire TRATON team every success." said Matthias Gründler, CEO of the TRATON GROUP.

Christian Schulz, CFO of the TRATON GROUP, added: "I am very happy that we have come so far with our teams in the last few months and that we have been able to conclude the Global Champion Strategy. With Annette Danielski, TRATON is getting a highly competent and internationally very experienced CFO, who was also actively involved in the IPO in my core team. I would like to thank the entire TRATON team and wish them all the best for the next strategic milestones."
