CEO named for European finTyre Distribution’s German businesses

Following on from last week’s announcement of the respective appointments of Michael Schwöbel und Michael Borchert as chief financial officer and chief commercial officer, London-based platform company European finTyre Distribution has announced the hiring of a new chief executive officer for its recently-acquired operations in Germany. As of 15 November, Claudio Passerini has taken on this role at European finTyre Distribution Germany Holding GmbH, Reiff Reifen und Autotechnik GmbH and tyre1 GmbH & Co. KG.

Like colleague Michael Schwöbel (and, albeit not directly, Michael Borchert) Passerini joins European finTyre Distribution from Pirelli. His most recent position with the tyre maker was as chief operations officer for its Latam consumer business. In total, Passerini possesses more than 15 years of experience within the automotive industry.
