MAX Automation SE: Changes to the Supervisory Board and Managing Directorate
Hamburg, 24 February 2026 – The Supervisory Board of MAX Automation SE (ISIN DE000A2DA588) has appointed Oliver Jaster as Managing Director and CEO, effective 1 April 2026. At the same time, Dr. Ralf Guckert will step down from both the Managing Directorate and the Supervisory Board effective 31 March 2026.
