Oberhofen am Thunersee, 1 September 2025 – The International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS) is further strengthening its administration with the appointment of former Alpine skiing champion Alexandra Meissnitzer to the President’s Office.
Meissnitzer will take on the role of managing special projects within the President’s Office, starting 1 September 2025.
A highly decorated athlete, she enjoyed an outstanding sporting career with two World Championship titles and three Olympic medals. Following her retirement from professional sport, she established herself as a respected expert commentator with Austrian broadcaster ORF.

FIS President Johan Eliasch said:“Alexandra is a true champion, both on and off the slopes.
