Stefan Budweit takes over Clark management

Budweit has already held various management positions within the company for thirteen years and took over as COO at Clark Europe just last year.

Eiten, who began his professional career at Clark in 1976, took over the management of Clark Europe (CMHEU) and Clark France (CMHFR) in 2014 following the death of Egon Strehl. Here he made a significant contribution to the development and growth of the company. "It has been an honour to be part of this great team and to drive Clark's vision forward together with our employees and contract partners," he stated. "I am proud of what we have achieved and wish Stefan Budweit every success in his new role." Eiten will continue to work in an advisory capacity for the management and the new managing director. He will also continue in his role as regional manager for Turkey and assume responsibility for CMHEU as an authorised signatory. In the longer term, he will devote himself to global tasks at Clark. 

Budweit has more than 30 years of national and international experience in the field of material handling to continue the successful work of Eiten. Before joining Clark Europe in 2012, he worked as a key account manager for Toyota and Jungheinrich, among others. He started his career at Clark Europe as business development manager. Here he was responsible for the strategic direction and further development of Clark Europe. He then worked as director sales and marketing until 2023 and has assumed additional responsibility as COO of Clark Europe since January 2024. "I am very much looking forward to the new challenge and to shaping the next steps for Clark Europe together with our dedicated team," explained Budweit on taking office.
