Tickethandel: Finanzvorstand verlässt CTS Eventim nach nur neun Monaten

Munich – Ticket distributor and concert organizer CTS Eventim is hunting for a new CFO for the fourth time in six years. William Willms, who had been in the role for only nine months, has left the company with immediate effect, according to a statement from CTS Eventim on Wednesday. The seasoned finance chief of Lufthansa Technik joined CTS at the start of the year.

The company did not provide a reason for Willms' departure; neither did his predecessors. Holger Hohrein served as CFO from 2023 to September 2025, followed by Andreas Grandinger from April 2020 until the end of 2022. Philipp Knigge, who oversees finance on the second level of management, is set to take over Willms' duties temporarily, having worked for CTS Eventim for the past nine years. The CTS Eventim stock plummeted six percent to 53 euros following the announcement.
