Board of directors seeking new chairman


Urs Schwaller, chairman of Swiss Post's board of directors since April 2016, has decided to step down from his role as of 1 December 2021.

 

"It’s the right time for Swiss Post and for me," the 68 year-old manager said. "We have systematically rectified past errors and implemented wide-ranging measures to ensure that similar incidents cannot happen again. But above all, we have set the main course for Swiss Post’s future viability."

 

The Swiss federal council will select a successor for Schwaller and propose this name to the board of directors for a vote. The decision will be taken at the general meeting to be held on 27 April 2021.

 

The leaving chairman said he wants to "ensure that the transition is as smooth as possible" by facilitating a long-term plan for the handover. (amh)
