The German airline Condor is expanding its Executive Management Board: Effective August 1, 2026, the Condor Supervisory Board has appointed Dr. Pierre Dominique Prümm as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO). In his new role, Prümm will be responsible for Network & Partnerships, Revenue Management, Cargo, Sales and E-Commerce. At the same time, Dag Jessel has been appointed Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective July 6, 2026, succeeding Björn Walther. By expanding its Executive Management Board, Condor is strengthening the company’s commercial and financial leadership and creating the foundation for sustainable long-term growth.
“As Condor continues to evolve into a network airline through the expansion of its city network, the requirements for commercial management, coordination and strategic development are increasing significantly. For this reason, we decided to create the new position of Chief Commercial Officer. During the largest growth phase in Condor’s history, we are deliberately investing where additional management and decision-making capabilities can make a direct contribution to the success of our transformation,” said Peter Gerber, CEO of Condor.
“In addition to welcoming our new CCO, we are also pleased to welcome our new Chief Financial Officer,” Gerber continued. “With Dr. Pierre Dominique Prümm and Dag Jessel, two highly experienced executives will join Condor’s Executive Management Board. Both bring extensive leadership experience and a deep understanding of the challenges associated with transformation and growth. They will provide important momentum for our continued development. We would also like to sincerely thank our departing colleague Björn Walther for his outstanding commitment and exceptional dedication as CFO. Björn has played a key role in strengthening Condor financially and paving the way for the company’s independence. We wish him all the very best for his personal and professional future.”
Björn Walther has served as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Condor since June 2022 and has made a significant contribution to the company’s financial stabilization and successful development during this time. As announced earlier this spring, Walther is leaving the company at his own request.
Dr. Pierre Dominique Prümm brings more than two decades of leadership experience in the aviation industry. Most recently, he served as Executive Board Member for Aviation and Infrastructure at Fraport, where he was responsible for the operational and strategic core business of Frankfurt Airport. Throughout his career, he has held various leadership positions focusing on strategy, business development, growth, customer orientation and infrastructure projects.
“The transformation into a network airline opens up numerous new opportunities and economic prospects for Condor. I am therefore very much looking forward to contributing to Condor’s strategic development and helping shape the airline’s commercial future in this new role,” said Dr. Pierre Dominique Prümm.
Dag Jessel brings extensive international experience as a CFO and Managing Director. His career has taken him through a variety of industrial and service-sector companies as well as several international growth and transformation programs. He has maintained close ties to the aviation industry for many years: At Lufthansa, he held positions including Director Finance & HR North Asia and roles in Mergers & Acquisitions. Further positions within the industry included responsibilities in cost management, process optimization and engineering.
“Over the past several years, Condor has established the strategic foundations necessary to continue its structural and economic development. Driving this progress forward is a responsibility I am very pleased to take on. In addition, aviation has accompanied me since the beginning of my professional career and remains a great passion of mine to this day,” said Dag Jessel.
With the appointments of Dr. Pierre Dominique Prümm and Dag Jessel, Condor’s Executive Management Board will consist of five members. Together with CEO Peter Gerber, Dag Jessel (CFO), Christian Schmitt (COO), Dr. Pierre Dominique Prümm (CCO) and Heiko Holm (CTO) will drive the company’s strategic development and guide the airline through its next phase of growth.
