Medien: Maximilian Preisser wird Vorstandssprecher bei Burda

Munich - Hubert Burda Media is reorganizing its operations, and Maximilian Preisser has been appointed as the new Chief Spokesperson of the company with immediate effect. In this role, he will be responsible for coordinating the strategic work of the board and driving the transformation of the company group. The individual members of the board will continue to be responsible for their respective business areas. Some of Burda's most well-known brands include "Bunte" and "Focus".

Preisser has been working for Burda since 2017, and was appointed to the board of directors this year. In his new position, he is responsible for corporate holdings, mergers and acquisitions, as well as legal matters. In 2022, Burda began reorganizing its businesses, separating its media operations and equity businesses more distinctly.

Within the German media sector, Burda is also leading the consolidation of the Burda Publishing house and the Digital publisher BurdaForward, with plans to manage print and digital offerings more closely together in the future. This includes the "Focus" and "Bunte" offerings, which have previously been organized separately.
