Our holding company: Brückner Group SE
Group control by strategic management holding company
Roles and responsibilities
The holding company – the “conductor” of the corporate group
Brückner Group SE is the management holding company and, as such, defines the group’s strategic orientation. It is also responsible for the group-wide merger and acquisition activities. Further responsibilities include management of the group companies by specifying targets and defining common strategies. As a parent company, the holding company defines standards and guidelines for ensuring transparency, corporate control and adherence to legal regulations.
Thanks to the pooling of specialist expertise and central functions in the holding company, Brückner Group GmbH is always a versatile contact point for the widest variety of group company issues. Supporting the companies with group-wide services is also the holding company’s responsibility.
Divisions
Many divisions – one common goal: customer satisfaction
In order to manage, control and support Brückner Group activities optimally worldwide, our management holding company covers nine different divisions. On the one side, these include strategic corporate development, human resources, corporate branding and public relations. Their responsibilities include developing corporate development strategies as well as reinforcing the individual brands and communicating them outwardly under a common “Brückner roof”. A strong human resources community also provides for productive employees, thereby guaranteeing corporate success. The aim here is to have the “right” employee in the “right” place.
On the commercial side, the controlling/accounting, audit, financing and tax divisions are represented in the holding company, as well as the IT and legal department. Success based on certainty of action, optimisation of corporate taxes and assurance of tax compliance take centre stage here. The financing department acts as a central contact point for all group companies in treasury and project financing matters. Our customers receive support here in finding the right financing solution for their project. The controlling and accounting department also establishes commercial principles for forward-looking management decisions.
Acquisition strategy
On the Growth Path: Expanding Market Leadership through Acquisition
The Brückner Group SE is convinced that strategic acquisitions and technological innovation will sustainably promote the growth of our Group. Thanks to continuous technological developments and the expansion of new product areas, existing business fields are constantly evolving and growing profitably.
Organic growth is complemented by targeted external acquisitions. These provide the Brückner Group with access to new markets while simultaneously expanding its existing competencies. This strengthens the joint market leadership of the holding company and its business units.
The focus is on mechanical and plant engineering, as well as companies and technologies in the fields of plastics processing, packaging, and next-generation manufacturing. The search field is expanded by the Brückner Extended initiative, which targets innovative industrial B2B solutions in both existing and new growth markets, such as recycling technologies.
In return, the Brückner Group offers its acquisition partners future security, reliability, and a balance of stability and flexibility.
As an internationally operating corporate group, the Brückner Group places great value on trustful cooperation, which enables long-term collaboration and creates sustainable synergies. Driven by shared corporate goals and values, the Group thus creates the ideal basis for a successful and future-oriented partnership.
