VOLLMER is focusing on the future: Starting January 1, 2025, Tobias Trautmann will expand the management team, forming a new leadership duo with the current managing director Andreas Böhm. With over 20 years of experience in the machine tool industry, Trautmann brings in-depth expertise and extensive international experience to Biberach.

Trautmann’s career combines technical know-how with management skills: After completing his training as a state-certified technician in the field of mechatronics, he gained valuable practical experience as an application engineer in China and South Korea. He further deepened his expertise during his studies in Aeronautical and Mechanical Engineering in the UK. The native of Ulm then began an international career as a sales manager for various engineering companies. Since 2020, he has served as division manager at GROB-Werke in Mindelheim, where he was responsible for global sales of universal machines, as well as overseeing the used machine market, product management, and project execution.

“With Tobias Trautmann, we are gaining an experienced leader who is a perfect fit for the company’s direction,” says Martin Kapp, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the VOLLMER Group. “His international experience, extensive industry knowledge, and clear communication will help further enhance our performance and ensure we continue on our current path. We are excited to have a strong leadership duo at VOLLMER alongside Andreas Böhm.”

Since 2024, Andreas Böhm has been leading the VOLLMER Group as managing director, succeeding Dr. Stefan Brand and Jürgen Hauger. With the appointment of Tobias Trautmann, the machine manufacturer is relying on a proven dual leadership model that draws on a 115-year family tradition while positioning the company for the future and a global market. Both managing directors are united in their goal: to strengthen VOLLMER as an innovative partner to the tool industry and prepare the company for international challenges.

“With a deep understanding of markets and customer needs, along with a willingness to learn and explore new ways together with a dedicated team, I look forward to leading VOLLMER into a dynamic and successful future,” says Trautmann, the new managing director of the VOLLMER Group.
