Stefanie Specker becomes CEO of EXPERTsuisse AG
EXPERTsuisse will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2025. As part of the Transformation 2025, the association and its subsidiary (EXPERTsuisse AG) are being continuously developed. The association's leadership is in the process of supplementing the association's positioning on auditing, tax and fiduciary services with topics such as consulting, digitalization, sustainability and governance/leadership.
The association EXPERTsuisse sees itself as a competence developer and certifier for its members. This is already reflected in the latest education program of the subsidiary EXPERTsuisse AG. In order to continue to successfully shape this development with its members up to and beyond the year 2025, the management team and its executive board have been continuously strengthened. In this context, the CEO role of EXPERTsuisse AG will now be transferred from Marius Klauser to Stefanie Specker as of April 1, 2023. "It is important to us that we can support the business model of EXPERTsuisse AG and the association, which has been professionalized and further developed over the past few years, even more robustly in terms of organization and personnel. Stefanie Specker has been working for us for over two years in the roles of CFO and CHRO, among others, and is therefore predestined to take on the CEO role," explains Peter Ritter, President of EXPERTsuisse.
"I am looking forward to my additional role as CEO of EXPERTsuisse AG. Our team is highly motivated to make the current projects - e.g. in education and IT - a success and to continue our success story together with our external dialogue partners," says Stefanie Specker, designated CEO of EXPERTsuisse AG. "It is a pleasure to hand over this responsible role into the hands of Stefanie Specker. We are not developing followers, but leaders. This allows for internal succession planning and for me an increased focus on political dossiers and strategic projects," says Marius Klauser, Director & Board Delegate of EXPERTsuisse.
Meanwhile, Luzia Hafen will take over from Marius Klauser in the role of Specialist Director Consulting & Business Service as of April 1, 2023. During Marius Klauser's sabbatical (August 2023 - January 2024), Sergio Ceresola will ad interim take over the director role and the role of the management of "allianz denkplatz schweiz", while Joachim Beil will ad interim take over the role of Head of Sustainability/Governance/Leadership. Michael Vonlanthen will continue to manage the education business with the important projects regarding the new expert courses for certified public accountants and certified tax experts.
