Hermle North America alters leadership structure

Hermle North America, Franklin, Wis., has changed its leadership structure with what it is calling a new “3EO” team. The change features three of the company’s best team members, all leaders in their respective fields, who will share duties and responsibility.

Manuel Merkt will lead operations as vice president of operations; Gunther Schnitzer will oversee the sales and engineering teams as vice president of sales and engineering; and Eric Olender will serve as vice president of technical services, overseeing the parts, service, and IT departments.

“I'm really excited about this reshaping of our leadership team, as it will benefit all our customers, and allow Hermle to continue to deliver on our promise of best-in-class performance and service,” said Schnitzer. “With the new ‘3EO’ model, we are confident that each of our individual areas of expertise can be utilized to the fullest advantage.”
