Corporate Management

SAF-HOLLAND S.A.’s management is based on the Anglo-American board system with a Board of Directors in addition to the Management Board that is in charge of operational activity. Half of the members of the Board of Directors have ties to the Company and are shareholders. The other half has no links with the Company. Except for CEO Dr. Reiner Beutel, no Board Director also exercises an operative function within the SAF-HOLLAND Group.

The Management Board consists of CEO Dr. Reiner Beutel, CFO Wilfried Trepels, COO Sam Martin, and Steffen Schewerda as Head of Group Operations. The function of Head of Group Operations was created to ensure overarching management of the 22 production sites. The Management Board also includes the Business Unit Heads: Detlef Borghardt (Trailer Systems), Jack Gisinger (Powered Vehicle Systems), and Dr. Reiner Beutel (Aftermarket).
