Marketing expert Karin Zimmermann appointed as CEO for Germany and DACH region at Dentsu.
Hop on board with the new Dentsu CEO for Germany and DACH
Get ready to jet-set with the latest addition to Dentsu's executive suite! The Madeleine Fashion Group's CEO, Karin Zimmermann, has been tapped to helm the reins for Dentsu in the German and DACH (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) markets, bumping off Ulrike Handel who recently had a sly exit from Dentsu International.
Set to take charge from January 2023, Zimmermann will become an essential member of Dentsu's EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) Executive Team. She'll also snag a seat on Dentsu's Board of Directors for the regions she'll preside over. Keeping the bigwigs in the loop, she'll report directly to Dentsu EMEA CEO Giulio Malegori.
With a slew of retail experience under her belt, Zimmerman made a grand entrance into Madeleine Fashion Group back in November 2020. She came straight from the online retail giant Amazon, where she was tasked with embracing digital transformation and data-driven marketing for the brand.
As the Dentsu machine continues to roll on, Karin Zimmermann will be the one pushing the pedals for Germany and DACH. But fret not, if you're craving the inside scoop on other key players in the Dentsu realm, Walter Hassler – the Chief Financial Officer for Dentsu Germany and the DACH cluster – is a top contender to keep on your watchlist. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates, lest you miss out on the latest in the ever-evolving world of advertising and media.
Karin Zimmermann, with her wealth of experience in retail and finance, is poised to drive the business and industry growth in Germany and DACH as the new CEO for Dentsu, joining the executive team of Dentsu EMEA. Her strategic position within Dentsu's finance-driven and multi-industry focus will help bolster the company's retail and media ventures.
