Germany-based TOMRA Recycling appoints Lars Enge as the new Executive Vice President (EVP), replacing Katrin Fricke. Lars joined TOMRA in March 2022 as Executive Vice President of Group Strategy.
Over the past three years, he has been an integral member of the leadership team, driving key strategic initiatives. He spearheaded the creation of TOMRA Horizon, a portfolio of new ventures that includes TOMRA Feedstock and Reuse, and successfully oversaw the acquisition of c-trace GmbH.
"TOMRA's recycling division has undergone an incredible journey since the acquisition of Titech in 2004, and the underlying drivers to increase recycling rates across the globe continue to represent substantial growth potential for the sorting arm of our business. I look forward to transforming that potential into even greater success in the future, for TOMRA and our customers," adds Lars Enge, newly appointed EVP of TOMRA Recycling.
Before joining TOMRA, Lars built extensive leadership experience at Yara International, where he held senior positions in M&A, Finance, and Strategy (2014–2022), including serving as CFO for Yara Europe from 2018 to 2022. Earlier in his career, he worked at McKinsey & Company (2009–2014).
