Mark Wright Is Schreiner Group’s New CFO

Mark Wright has assumed the role at the helm of the commercial organization at Schreiner Group. The finance and real estate expert has been serving as CFO since the beginning of the year, with responsibility for the commercial activities of all four locations in Oberschleissheim, Dorfen, New York, and Shanghai.

He succeeds Karl Tschacha, who successfully held the role for 15 years and decisively shaped the commercial structures of the internationally operating family business. Tschacha is switching to the role of a senior management consultant. In that role he is going to make his expertise available to senior management, the advisory council, and the shareholders’ meeting in 2026.

Many Years of Experience in International Leadership Roles

Wright brings more than 25 years of international management and leadership experience to his position as CFO. Wright previously held various commercial leadership roles for 26 years at Giesecke+Devrient, most recently as CFO of the real estate business. Prior to that, he also served as CFO of the group’s Canadian branch for several years.

“Schreiner Group has impressed me with its innovative prowess, its internationality, and its clear growth strategy,” says Wright. “The CFO role combines classic financial responsibility with strategic subjects such as digitalization. This combination makes this role particularly attractive.”

Wright sees major potential for all business units, especially in terms of RFID: “The market is clearly evolving away from the simple label toward data-based value-adding solutions. RFID, digitalization, and smart data are decisive growth drivers for our target markets.”

In addition to Finance, Controlling, and Purchasing, Wright is responsible for IT and Facility Management, plus Commercial Controlling of the international entities. A special focus is placed on Schreiner Group’s further internationalization, extension of the company’s foreign business, optimization of cost structures, and sustainable increase of profitability—in view of a currently challenging global economic environment.

“We’re in economically turbulent times,” says Wright. “That’s why it’s all the more important to combine commercial stability with strategic foresight and to systematically invest in forward-thinking areas.”

Strong Foundation Due to Capable Predecessor

Wright is building on a strong foundation laid by his predecessor. Tschacha has had a decisive part in the evolution of Schreiner Group’s structures and successfully supported the company’s international growth for many years.

“With high professional expertise, foresight, and great personal dedication, Karl Tschacha has made a major contribution to Schreiner Group’s success,” says Roland Schreiner, Schreiner Group’s CEO. “We expressly thank him for his long-standing commitment and his achievements.

“In Mark Wright we’re gaining a CFO with strong international experience and a strategic view,” adds Schreiner. “He’s going to provide important impetus for economically controlling and achieving further growth of Schreiner Group.”
