Claude Rohrer takes over as Head of Audit at OBT
Within the Executive Board, Claude Rohrer will take over as Head of the Audit Department as of October 1, 2020. Claude Rohrer is a certified public accountant and has been with OBT since 2011, where he was promoted to Head of Audit Zurich in 2014.
With Claude Rohrer, OBT was able to appoint an ideal successor from its own ranks, who has many years of experience in auditing and knows OBT AG very well. The previous head of department, Stefan Traber, will remain with OBT and concentrate on the market region of St.Gallen. He will also continue to support his successor as an important member of the management team.
The main activity of the new head of department lies in auditing and advising medium-sized and larger privately owned groups of companies, in particular with regard to accounting in accordance with Swiss GAAP FER. He also brings proven experience in serving national and international corporate clients.
"Claude Rohrer is an excellent appointment. What could be better for the management of an entire specialist area than an experienced professional who has been able to develop within the company and thus knows the business, the clients as well as all employees very well and is also a guarantor for excellent service quality", adds Thomas Züger, CEO of OBT, with regard to the new appointment of the head of the specialist area audit.
