Simon Hächler joins Beerligroup as Senior Executive
Simon Hächler combines financial responsibility and operational leadership in one person. He has not just supported restructurings but led them, with the result as his own responsibility.
His path led from commercial apprentice to Executive Vice President. His positions range from telecommunications through aviation and MRO to space. There, for more than ten years, he was responsible for international procurement and inventory management with teams in Europe and Asia. He then led a Swiss aviation business unit as CFO and subsequently as Executive Vice President with full P&L responsibility, including due diligence and the sale to a strategic buyer. In 2025, as interim VP, he took over a production site in Sweden, stabilised operations and initiated the turnaround.
Because he knows both sides, he does not discuss the numbers but their causes on the shop floor. He calls for decisions early, even when they are uncomfortable. He holds a diploma in business administration (HF) and is studying part-time for an MSc in Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence (University of Central Lancashire).
As an interim executive, he takes on mandates in industrial and technology companies facing a restructuring or a carve-out. He works there the way he worked as an employee: responsible for the result, not just for the recommendation.
