Schreiner Group appoints new CFO

Schreiner Group has appointed Mark Wright as its new CFO, giving him oversight of commercial activities across the company's four locations in Oberschleissheim, Dorfen, New York and Shanghai.

Wright succeeds Karl Tschacha, who held the position for 15 years before transitioning to a senior management consultant role, in which he will advise senior management, the advisory council and the shareholders' meeting through 2026.

A graduate in business administration from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich, Wright also holds a qualification as a real estate economist from IREBS. He spent 26 years at Giesecke+Devrient, where he held various commercial leadership roles, including CFO of its real estate business and CFO of its Canadian branch.

'Schreiner Group has impressed me with its innovative prowess, its internationality and its clear growth strategy,' said Wright. 'The CFO role combines classic financial responsibility with strategic subjects such as digitalization. This combination makes this role particularly attractive.'

In addition to finance, controlling and purchasing, Wright is responsible for IT, facility management and commercial controlling of Schreiner Group's international entities. He identifies RFID as a key growth area, noting that the market is shifting away from simple labels toward data-based, value-adding applications.

'We're in economically turbulent times,' Wright added. 'That's why it's all the more important to combine commercial stability with strategic foresight and to systematically invest in forward-thinking areas.'

CEO Roland Schreiner welcomed the appointment, crediting Tschacha for laying the groundwork: 'In Mark Wright we're gaining a CFO with strong international experience and a strategic view. He's going to provide important impetus for economically controlling and achieving further growth of Schreiner Group.'
