Nathalie Wappler becomes Deputy Director General SRG
Nathalie Wappler, Director of SRF, will become Deputy Director General of SRG starting in January 2020. She will take over the position from Ladina Heimgartner, who is leaving the company at the end of the year. Starting in early 2020, Pius Paulin will lead the RTR business unit as interim director.
In consultation with the SRG Board of Directors, Gilles Marchand, Director General SRG, has appointed Nathalie Wappler as his deputy. Nathalie Wappler will take over the role of Deputy Director General SRG at the beginning of 2020 from Ladina Heimgartner, who will leave the company at the end of 2019 after almost 13 years. Gilles Marchand: "Nathalie Wappler has made an excellent start at SRF. I'm delighted to have her on my side as my deputy for the first time. We will complement each other well - especially in German-speaking Switzerland."
At the request of Gilles Marchand and Vincent Augustin, President of the SRG.R sponsoring association, the SRG Board of Directors has approved the appointment of Pius Paulin as interim Director of RTR. Pius Paulin has worked at SRG since 1987 and has been a member of the Executive Board RTR and Head of Technology RTR since 1993. From December 2019, he will join the SRG Executive Board as Director ad interim and will lead RTR in this capacity from the beginning of 2020. Gilles Marchand: "I thank Pius Paulin for his willingness and look forward to working with him. His many years of experience at SRG will be very useful to us in his new role."
The official internal and external job advertisement "Director RTR" will be published soon. Under the presidency of Vincent Augustin, the regional board of the SRG.R sponsorship will search for a new director.
