Henkel Announces Change to Leadership of Adhesive Technologies Business Unit
Henkel recently announced that Jan-Dirk Auris, the board member responsible for the Adhesive Technologies business unit, will conclude his service to the company at the end of January 2023, following the joint decision to forego prolonging his existing contract, which is scheduled to expire at the end of 2023. He will support the handover of responsibility to his successor.
"In more than three decades at Henkel, Jan-Dirk Auris has always put himself at the service of our company and recorded many achievements. Under his leadership, the Adhesive Technologies business unit has developed very successfully over the past decade. Today, the business is the undisputed global leader in its industry. For us, this is the right time to address the succession at the helm of this business unit. We are very grateful to Jan-Dirk Auris for his great commitment and highly successful work for our company and wish him all the best for his future," said Simone Bagel-Trah, Ph.D., chairwoman of the supervisory board and shareholders' committee of Henkel.
