• MMag. Marianne Jakl (35) takes over from Dr. Diana Neumüller-Klein on 1 March 2022

Vienna, 3 February 2022---Effective 1 March 2022, the corporate communications department of publicly listed construction group STRABAG SE will have a new director, as Marianne Jakl takes over the reins from Diana Neumüller-Klein, who is leaving the company at her own request. Jakl, who was most recently responsible for the corporate communications activities in Austria, will then be in charge of all internal and external communications including investor relations, corporate governance and marketing, reporting directly to the CEO.

“Marianne Jakl is the obvious choice for us as a successor. In recent years, she has made an important contribution both in the area of investor relations and in the communicative management of our key strategy and innovation topics. As deputy head of communications, she has also demonstrated a very good feel for the corporate group, the industry and the future challenges at an international level. With her broad expertise, we ensure that our investors and stakeholders can continue to rely on transparent and open communication and are taken along on our exciting journey into a digital and climate-neutral world of construction. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Diana Neumüller-Klein in particular, who has built up and professionalised the corporate communications department over the past 15 years. With the implementation of the TEAMS WORK. philosophy, she has had a decisive and lasting impact on our corporate identity,” says Thomas Birtel, CEO of STRABAG SE.

“We have set ourselves the goal of shaping the building of tomorrow, and our 75,000 employees are committed to this challenge every day. I want to make our vision and our strategy tangible by backing this up with the countless stories we can tell as we further strengthen the STRABAG Group brand,” says Marianne Jakl, looking forward to the task.
