Fritz Joussen is resigning from his position as CEO of Tui ahead of time.
His successor comes from the travel group.
Hanover – The travel group Tui loses its longtime boss.
The company surprisingly announced that the CEO Fritz Joussen was resigning from his position early on September 30th.
The Executive Committee of the Supervisory Board is therefore proposing the previous Chief Financial Officer Sebastian Ebel as his successor.
Joussen came to Tui a decade ago.
His contract actually ran until September 2025. During his tenure, the group fell into a serious crisis due to the pandemic and was also supported with billions in government aid.
The company is now benefiting from the increasing demand for travel.
Before his career, Joussen, who was born in Duisburg, was head of the German division of the telecommunications group Vodafone.
