FRANKFURT, Germany –Dr. Christoph Falk-Gierlinger will start as the new Managing Director of Continental Engineering Services on July 1, 2020.

The mechatronics engineer, who also holds a doctorate in computer sciences, succeeds Bernd Neitzel, who is retiring after more than 14 years at the helm of the development service provider and after a total of 37 years with Continental. With Falk-Gierlinger, a manager with many years of experience in the automotive supply industry is taking over:

The 47-year-old joins Continental after working for engineering service provider Alten. He began his career in 1998 at Bosch, where he held various management positions in Vienna and Stuttgart. After a two-year stint at the French automotive supplier Valeo in Paris, he returned to Stuttgart in 2013 to join MBtech.
