The German Association for Supply Chain Management, Procurement and Logistics (BME) welcomes its new Chief Executive Officer: Dr Helena Melnikov (39) took office as the new CEO of the BME group on 6 September 2021.

Dr Melnikov had been Chief Executive Officer of the Waren-Verein of the Hamburger Börse e.V. and Managing Director of its affiliated trade associations since 2014. Prior to this, Melnikov, who holds a PhD in commercial criminal law and completed part of her legal education in Moscow, was employed by the Bundesverband Großhandel, Außenhandel, Dienstleistungen e.V.

Dr Melnikov is fluent in German, English and Russian.

Interim Managing Director Dr Hans Jörg Eyrich will continue to provide his services to the BME and Dr Melnikov for a transitional period. This will enable a smooth handover of business and also ensure that ongoing projects are successfully handed over or completed in line with the association's objectives.
