Biography

Konstantin Sixt, together with his brother, Alexander, owns 56% of Sixt SE, one of the world's largest car rental companies. They are the co-CEOs.

Their grandfather Martin Sixt founded the firm in 1912. Their father, Erich, took over in 1969 when it was a local operation with just 200 vehicles.

Together with his wife, Regine, Erich turned the company into a global player. He stepped down as CEO in 2021. He now chairs the supervisory board.

Sixt SE, which went public in 1986, had 2021 revenues of around $2.5 billion, with 7,000 employees and some 2000 locations in over 100 countries.

Konstantin and Alexander were appointed co-CEOs of Sixt in 2021 after their father stepped down; the brothers had been board members since 2015.

About

In 2005, after receiving an MSc in International Accounting and Finance from Cass Business School in London, he assumed responsibility for Sixt's online operations.

His mom is still active in the company, in her role as Senior Executive Vice President of Marketing.
