Bettina Würfel has been appointed to the role of managing director at Turner & Townsend, with responsibility for the operational business of the global professional services company across both Germany and Austria.
Würfel joined Turner & Townsend in 2003 and has over two decades of experience in the built environment in Germany, Austria, France, Switzerland, and the USA.
For the last six years she has led Turner & Townsend’s Munich office. In June 2024, the company announced its plan to combine with CBRE’s project management business at around calendar year-end.
Würfel succeeds Dr Stefan Reimoser who was at the Turner & Townsend helm in Germany and Austria for the past 12 years. Reimoser has recently taken over responsibility to lead on business development with a particular focus on major projects and programmes in the local markets.
Over the last decade, Turner & Townsend’s business in Germany and Austria has more than trebled in size with a core focus on project and cost management advising domestic and international clients to drive world-class major programmes and projects. Turner & Townsend in Germany & Austria has over 350 employees.
Said Würfel: 'I’m looking forward to leading our teams in both Germany and Austria as we continue to build our business with a key focus on project and cost management.
'With our expertise, we can significantly contribute to improving the performance of construction projects while professionalising their delivery.
'It’s an exciting time in our business as we plan to combine with CBRE incorporating their project management business into ours.
'Our goal is to create the premier, differentiated programme, project and cost management capability globally delivering unmatched scale and breadth of expertise to our clients.'
