Lars Ole Eichelberg has led the strategic purchasing of all direct materials at FUNKE since July 2020, with a focus on paper and printing services. With 24 years of national and international experience in the illustration printing and media industry, he combines deep expertise in both sales and procurement—skills that are particularly valuable when negotiating in markets dominated by monopolies and oligopolies.
Beyond his role at FUNKE, he is actively engaged in association-level projects, where he advises on lobbying and industry policy matters. His work frequently intersects with key sustainability and compliance topics, including the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act, COâ‚‚ accounting, CSRD, sustainability reporting, and the European Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
