Change in the Management Board of HENSOLDT AG
Chief Human Resources Officer Dr Lars Immisch to step down from the Management Board at the turn of the year 2025/2026
Dr Lars Immisch, member of the Management Board and Director of Human Resources at HENSOLDT AG, will step down from the Management Board at the turn of the year 2025/2026 for health reasons. As announced by the Supervisory Board of HENSOLDT AG, the Management Board, together with the HR management team, will ensure continuity in the area of human resources until the succession solution already agreed upon takes effect in the new year.
Dr Lars Immisch has been a member of the Management Board of HENSOLDT AG since 1 October 2022. In addition to his responsibility for human resources, he was also responsible for sustainability and facility management. During his tenure, he has played a key role in shaping the further development of the management and corporate culture and has established modern HR processes and tools as part of the company's strategic transformation. He has played a key role in the company's strong growth during this period with targeted recruiting and prudent initiatives to integrate a large number of new employees.
Under his leadership, sustainability reporting in accordance with CSRD was also successfully introduced. Facility management also gained in importance under his responsibility – in particular through numerous projects for the expansion and new construction of locations as part of the strategic axis ‘Deliver at Scale’.
‘Lars Immisch provided decisive impetus during a period of profound change,’ said Reiner Winkler, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of HENSOLDT AG. ‘With great commitment, he has created structures that will strengthen HENSOLDT in the long term – in terms of management culture as well as sustainability and modern working practices. On behalf of the entire Supervisory Board, I would like to thank him very much for his passion, his humanity and his tireless dedication, and wish him all the best for the future.’
Oliver Dörre, CEO of HENSOLDT AG, also praised the collaboration: "With his heart, energy and empathy, Lars Immisch has contributed to HENSOLDT being perceived today as a modern, attractive and responsible technology company. His work on the strategic axis “Lead our Team into the Future” and his commitment to sustainability and the further development of our locations have left a lasting mark. I would like to thank Lars personally and on behalf of the entire Executive Board for his trusting and inspiring collaboration and wish him all the best for the future."
