Thomas Homberg named CEO of Mehler Systems
FULDA, GERMANY (15 August 2022)
Thomas Homberg has been chosen to serve as CEO of Mehler Systems, previously recognized as Mehler Vario System, a Europe‘s market leader for ballistic protection and carrying systems, platform and vehicle protection, and tactical equipment and clothing.
His appointment to the top leadership position took effect at the beginning of August. Homberg also assumed the title of Managing Director of Mehler Systems, which he now jointly heads with Dr. Mario Amschlinger.
Homberg brings to his new roles extensive military, defence, and security industry experience.
A former German Armed Forces paratroop commander who also received German and French General Staff Service training, Homberg has held board and managing director positions in the European MBDA Group and served as Head of Group Strategy for the Airbus Group.
„I am very much looking forward to my new duties,” Homberg said.
“Mehler Systems is a leader in the market and has highly competent teams with decades of experience. Developing the best equipment for those who daily guarantee our safety is an enormous incentive and motivation for me.“
Homberg took the reins after now-former CEO and Managing Director Siegfried Will departed to begin his planned retirement. Will had been with the company 37 years.
