The Supervisory Board of SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner SE has extended the contract of Chief Executive Officer Jens Amail ahead of schedule by five years, with Amail now set to remain CEO until December 2030. This early renewal reflects the company's successful development in recent years and signals stability and confidence in its leadership under Amail, who has led SNP since January 2023.
Willi Westenberger, Managing Director at Carlyle and Chairman of SNP's Supervisory Board, stated that under Amail's guidance, SNP has made significant progress across key strategic priorities, strengthened its market position, and delivered sustained operational improvements. The company has accelerated its international expansion and broadened its global partner ecosystem as a foundation for sustainable growth. Extending Amail's contract is seen as a clear signal of continuity and confidence in his leadership and the team he has built.
Since the end of 2022, SNP has achieved annual records in order entry, revenue, and EBIT, with sustained profitability increases backed by a successful internationalization and growth strategy. This strategy has opened new markets, significantly expanded the software business, and elevated ecosystem collaboration. Amail also played a key role in strengthening corporate governance and strategic stability, including a return to a dual governance structure with an Executive and Supervisory Board and resolving long-standing legal matters, providing a solid foundation for future development.
On the product side, the introduction of the SNP Kyano platform in 2024 was an important evolutionary step in supporting the company's strategy as an enabler of digital transformations and business agility. Building on this momentum, SNP entered into a strategic partnership with global investment firm Carlyle at the end of 2024, intended to support the next phase of growth by accelerating strategy execution and further expanding SNP's global footprint.

This move underscores the importance of stable leadership in driving operational excellence and strategic partnerships in the competitive technology sector, potentially influencing investor confidence and market positioning in the digital transformation landscape.
