Roche’s chief financial officer Erich Hunziker is to retire at the end of March after ten years with the company.
Erich, who also held the roles of chief information officer and deputy head of the Corporate Executive Committee, has plans to focus on a number of board memberships.
Roche praised him as one of the key architects of its successful development, saying he had built a financial reporting system and investor relations department “widely seen as industry benchmarks”.
Erich will be succeeded as chief financial officer by Alan Hippe, who is set to join Roche from global materials and technology firm ThyssenKrupp AG.
