Thomas Knüsel is the new CEO of Cyberlink

Cyberlink AG has been an independent Swiss managed service provider for ICT infrastructures since 1995. The service portfolio includes Cloud- and Connectivity Services and is aimed exclusively at business customers. According to the company, its cloud platform is one of the most modern in Switzerland, and services provided on it are audited in accordance with the ISAE 3402 standard. Now Thomas Knüsel (49) has taken over the CEO position from Beat Tinner. Tinner, who founded the company, retired from management and operations at the end of October, but remains Chairman of the Board of Directors. Knüsel has worked for Cyberlink for ten years and was most recently responsible for the MSP's operations as COO, focusing on cloud and connectivity. He holds a degree in Electrical Engineering, an Executive MBA and completed a leadership program at the University of Virginia Darden School of Business.

Thomas Knüsel's successor as new Head of Operations and member of the Executive Board is Michael Sommer (37) - a long-time Cyberlink employee who has been on board for more than twelve years. Of these, he led the Operations team for five years. In the last two years, he was also co-responsible for internal and external project management and most recently was also responsible for the Service Delivery Team. The handover of operational issues to Michael Sommer offers Thomas Knüsel the opportunity to focus more intensively on strategic issues in the future and to operate even closer to the market, according to the statement.

The new Head of Finance, Sonja Bucher (30), also comes from within the company. She takes over the finance area from Simon Anderegg, who, as a member of the Executive Board, will focus on market issues in the future. Sonja Bucher holds a degree in Business Administration HF, has been working for Cyberlink since 2019 and was Team Leader Finance & Admin prior to her promotion, as well as HR Manager since autumn 2021. The Cyberlink management team is completed by CSO Stephan Ulrich. He continues to be responsible for the Sales division. With the anchoring of the two service areas in the management, the customer and market orientation of the company will be further strengthened.

The high level of customer satisfaction is also reflected in Bilanz Telekom's rating: this year, for the fifth time in a row, business customers have named Cyberlink the leader in the "Internet Service Provider & Corporate Networks" category.
