Share

Thomas Hiemer became chief financial officer at logistics provider Dachser on 1 January 2025.

As a member of the executive board, he is responsible for finance, controlling, tax and treasury (FCT).

Hiemer took over from Dachser CEO Burkhard Eling, who had also headed this executive unit for the past 18 months.

Hiemer has been working in the finance department at Dachser for 12 years.

During this time, the 41-year-old has proven himself to be a high-profile manager with expertise in corporate finance, accounting, and controlling.

He initially successfully managed group controlling before taking on the position of head of corporate finance in December 2021.

In July 2023, Hiemer was appointed deputy director of the finance, controlling, tax and treasury executive unit and thus acted as deputy head of finance.

Before joining Dachser, the graduate economist worked in finance at the DAX-listed company Heidelberg Materials and gained relevant experience abroad in the US and China.

Dachser CEO Burkhard Eling said: “Sustainable growth that is oriented to the long term—that’s what guides Dachser’s thinking and actions as a family-owned company.

“A strong and well-orchestrated finance department has an important role to play here.

“Thomas Hiemer has already become thoroughly familiar with the CFO role at Dachser.

“He will take over seamlessly and thus ensure continuity in management.”
