Leadership transition

Regensburg (Germany), After more than 25 years, James Walker hands over operational leadership to Steve Hodges and Tracey Boon. 

Effective 1 November 2026, Dallmeier UK enters the next chapter of its successful development with a new leadership team. After more than 25 years as Managing Director, James Walker hands over operational responsibility to two long-standing and highly experienced colleagues: Steve Hodges takes over as Managing Director, while Tracey Boon assumes the role of Finance Director.

Since joining Dallmeier more than two decades ago, James Walker has played a decisive role in establishing and developing Dallmeier UK. Under his leadership, the UK operation has grown into a successful, strong and well-established sales organization with a highly motivated team and a strong position in the market.

While stepping back from his day-to-day responsibilities, James Walker will remain closely connected to Dallmeier UK and will continue to make his extensive experience and expertise available as an advisor in the background.

“James has made an outstanding contribution to the development of Dallmeier UK over the past more than 25 years. He has built much more than a successful sales organization – he has created a strong team and a solid foundation for the future,” says Thomas Dallmeier, CEO of Dallmeier electronic. “We are very pleased that James will continue to support Dallmeier UK with his experience and expertise. At the same time, we are confident that Steve and Tracey are the right people to take the company forward and continue its successful development.”

Steve Hodges has most recently served as Operational Director at Dallmeier UK, where he has successfully contributed to the organization’s development and operational strength. Tracey Boon, in her previous role as Office & Account Manager, has also been an integral part of the team and brings extensive knowledge of the company and its customers to her new position.

The transition therefore represents not a break, but a natural continuation of the successful path Dallmeier UK has followed over the past two decades. With Steve Hodges and Tracey Boon taking on their new responsibilities, Dallmeier is ensuring continuity while at the same time creating the foundation for the next phase of growth and development.

Thomas Dallmeier and the entire Dallmeier team worldwide wish Steve Hodges and Tracey Boon every success in their new roles and always a good hand in their new responsibilities.
