Melody Harris-Jensbach, CEO of Jack Wolfskin, said: "I am delighted that with André Grube, we have been able to recruit an experienced financial expert from the outdoor industry for Jack Wolfskin. His responsibilities now include in particular the completion of the full integration of Jack Wolfskin into Callaway Golf Group.”
