DuMont recruits Sandra Vollmer, former Verivox executive, as their new Chief Financial Officer.

In a significant shift for the media conglomerate DuMont, Stefan Hütwohl has announced his decision to step down as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) at the end of the year. Hütwohl refers to this transition as a "new phase in my career" that better suits him, allowing more time for personal activities and family.

Hütwohl's departure comes after the sale of Verivox, the comparison portal, to the Italian holding company Moltiply in the spring. The specific projects Hütwohl will be involved in after his tenure as CFO have not been disclosed by DuMont.

Dr. Christoph Bauer, CEO of DuMont, has expressed gratitude towards Hütwohl for his commitment to DuMont's corporate realignment and their ten-year working relationship. Bauer wishes Hütwohl all the best for his personal life and professional career.

In a move to strengthen its digital presence, DuMont has welcomed Sandra Vollmer to the company. Vollmer, who has previously served as CEO and CFO of the comparison portal Verivox, brings a wealth of experience in the telecommunications, media, and internet industries to the table. Bauer cites Vollmer's expertise as a key factor in her appointment.

Vollmer's previous roles at C-level include positions in finance and HR at 1&1 Mail, Media Applications SE (Web.de and GMX), United Internet, and Unitymedia. Prior to joining DuMont, Vollmer worked as Director Business Finance at the joint venture Unsere grüne Glasfaser of Allianz and Telefónica. The details of Vollmer's next employer after leaving Verivox are not explicitly stated in the available search results.

The working relationship between Dr. Christoph Bauer and Stefan Hütwohl will continue in a different form after Hütwohl steps down as CFO. Bauer has expressed confidence in Vollmer's ability to lead DuMont into a new era of growth, particularly in digital markets.

After a three-month transition period, Hütwohl will officially step down from his CFO position at the end of the year. During this time, he will continue to work with the company in a prominent role, supporting the Group Management Board in strategic projects.

This change in leadership marks an exciting new chapter for DuMont, as the company continues to evolve and adapt to the ever-changing landscape of the digital media economy. Sandra Vollmer's extensive experience and expertise are expected to play a significant role in DuMont's future success.
