René Takens to step down as CEO of Accell Group in April

Accell Group CEO René Takens will step down at the company’s AGM on 25th April.

Takens said: “Now that the outline of our refined strategy is becoming more and more clear, this has created a natural moment for me to hand over the reins to this wonderful company. I believe it would be good for this strategy to be implemented under new leadership. It has been my privilege to lead Accell Group for 18 years and I believe this is a good moment to end this period.

Ab Pasman, chairman of the Accell’s supervisory board said: “Under René’s leadership, Accell Group has grown into a leading multinational with 3,000 employees and turnover of a billion euros. Our company is ready for the next stage in its development.”

The company is now on the search for a new CEO.
