Realignment of management strengthens agility and specialisation
Dominic Schuhmacher becomes CEO of the property and trust company Müller Schuhmacher. Daniela Steiner is responsible for property management, Head of Sales Michael Zeugin is now also head of the Board of Directors and Christine Müller is in charge of the new Corporate Centre. Christian Furrer remains head trustee.
The Winterthur-based property and trust company Müller Schuhmacher is reorganising its management. According to a press release, the new management structure is intended to create more agility and strengthen the focus on the company’s special competences.
The new Managing Director is Dominic Schuhmacher. Daniela Steiner will take over as head of property management. Michael Zeugin is in charge of property sales and now also acts as Chairman of the Board of Directors. Finance, human resources, communication and projects will be bundled in the newly created Corporate Centre. This will be managed by Christine Müller. Christian Furrer will continue to be responsible for the Fiduciary division.
“The new structure makes us more agile, creates clear responsibilities and strengthens our specialisation,” Michael Zeugin is quoted as saying. “This allows us to remain efficient and an attractive employer.” In an internal discussion with some of the new management team, Dominic Schuhmacher points out that staff turnover is around four times lower than the industry average and that the new organisation creates clear development prospects within the company. “At the same time, it gives us the structural flexibility to examine succession solutions or targeted acquisitions without jeopardising our culture and values.”
Parallel to the reorganisation of the management structure, Müller Schuhmacher has also further developed its brand identity. According to Christian Furrer in the interview, it reflects the company’s proven values as well as its growth and current reality. It also “works excellently in digital communication”.
