Tilmann Schultze has been appointed CEO of DPD Switzerland. Schultze, who was born in Greece and grew up in France, is a German citizen who speaks French, German and English.
After holding various posts in Sales Management, in 2007 he became International Sales Director at GeoPost. For the last four years, he has been looking after the accounts of major customers at the DPDgroup’s head office in Paris. During this time he has developed and enhanced his team, and in an exchange involving all national affiliates has led the group to an exceptional increase in sales of the European key accounts.
Schultze said he is looking forward to the challenges facing him in Switzerland: “Our hybrid network enables us to serve both private and business customers. We’re proud that for many years we’ve been able to count major Swiss companies among our clients”. Tilmann Schultze also sees great potential in Switzerland to gain market shares in the private clients sector: “In Europe, the Swiss are number one in terms of shopping online. With our innovative solutions such as Predict and Pickup, we will continue to grow profitably and sustainably in the future”.
“With Tilmann Schultze, we have an inspiring figure with strong leadership skills taking over the management of our business unit in Switzerland. Mr Schultze brings with him a wealth of entrepreneurial thinking, and takes a correspondingly dynamic approach to the market. His strengths include recognising and implementing new ideas and fostering the advancement of talented employees”, said Christian Emery, Chairman of the Board of GeoPost.
