GERMANY (CelebrityAccess) Roman Velke has been appointed chief financial officer of Deutsche Entertainment AG, taking up the position previously held by Ralph Quellmalz, who leaves the German promotion company in April.
Quellmalz departs to “take on new professional challenges.” Under his watch, DEAG was set on “an import course towards internationalization” according to the company’s board. The former CFO played a key role in growing DEAG’s profitability and arts/exhibitions business, according to IQ magazine.
Velke is already employed by DEAG, joining the company in 2011 from accountancy firm BDO and formerly held a position at M&A.
