The former Executive Vice President Global HR at Jenoptik will take over HR and Legal Affairs on the PALFINGER AG Executive Board on January 8, 2024. As a result, Maria Koller will be largely responsible for the focus and positioning of the company in an increasingly demanding job market.

"Following many years of experience, Maria Koller knows how important well-trained employees are to a technology company. With her expertise, we are strengthening PALFINGER's position as an attractive and future-oriented employer," says Hubert Palfinger, Chairman of the Supervisory Board at PALFINGER AG. In a job market that is becoming increasingly demanding and competitive due to demographic change and digitalization, it is important to address potential employees very effectively while successfully retaining experts in the company. "Maria Koller is the ideal candidate for this task, based on experience gained in HR matters at Alcatel in Austria, Danaher in Great Britain and Germany, at Magna Europe and since 2017 in a central position at the listed technology group Jenoptik," explains Palfinger. Among other things, Maria Koller will focus on employee development, training and further education, as well as change management. By joining PALFINGER's executive board as CHRO (Chief Human Resources Officer), Maria Koller, in close cooperation with CEO Andreas Klauser, CFO Felix Strohbichler and COO Alexander Susanek, will drive forward the company's positioning as a future-oriented, attractive employer and contribute significantly to the implementation of Strategy 2030.
