Lawo has announced that Jamie Dunn is taking on additional responsibilities as ‘vorstand’ (executive board member) and deputy CEO. Dunn, who joined the company in 2011 and has been Lawo’s chief commercial officer since 2019, will now assume legal responsibility alongside CEO Philipp Lawo and Claus Gärtner, who joined the company as CFO and ‘vorstand’ last November.
Lawo’s management board consists of Jamie Dunn (deputy CEO and ‘vorstand’), Claus Gärtner (CFO and ‘vorstand’), Andreas Hilmer (CMO), Christian Lukic (CSCO), Phil Myers (CTO), Ulrich Schnabl (COO) and Claudia Nowak (CFO and ‘vorstand’), who will retire at the end of September 2024 and join the company’s supervisory board.
“With Claudia Nowak’s retirement in September of this year, it was important to bring a strong representation of the customer and market perspective to the ‘vorstand’ role,” said Gärtner. “Jamie is the natural choice for the additional responsibilities of the Deputy CEO role, given his longevity with the company, his strong standing with our customers and his deep understanding of the market. There are exciting times ahead for Lawo.”
“It has been an incredible experience over the past 13 years to contribute to the strong growth and transformation of this market-leading company,” said Dunn. “During this time, our global brand has been a leading advocate for the industry’s shift to IP. Lawo’s longevity rests on many pillars, but talented and passionate people remain key to our continued success and loyal customer base. I am honored to continue to play a key leadership role and represent the company in the next chapter of Lawo’s growth and development.”
