Thomas Bachmann became CEO of the Eppendorf Group on Aug. 1, 2015. Following the departure of Eppendorf's previous CEO, Detmar Ammermann had exercised the function of Spokesman of the Management Board on an interim basis in addition to his responsibilities as the company's CFO.

Bachmann, who has been a member of the Eppendorf Supervisory Board since 2013, came to Eppendorf from his position as president of the Bruker BioSpin Group. He has been active in the life science sector since 2005, when he took on the overall management of the globally active Tecan Group, which is headquartered in Switzerland.

"We are very pleased that we have been able to win Thomas Bachmann as our Chief Executive Officer," said Klaus Fink, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Eppendorf Group. "He has demonstrated his expertise and his strategic foresight in many ways during more than 25 years of experience in international management positions."
