Dr. Dirk Sojka is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the TERRAS Group.

In his role, he is responsible for the strategic development of a mid-market corporate group focused on critical infrastructure. At the heart of his approach is the combination of regional entrepreneurship, sustainable succession planning, and a professionally managed group structure.

A key focus of his work is preserving the distinctive strengths of Germany’s owner-managed construction companies—including close customer relationships, deep regional roots, agile decision-making, and entrepreneurial responsibility—while providing long-term stability, growth, synergies, and investment capacity through the TERRAS Group.

Dr. Sojka is also driving the continued expansion of the TERRAS Group as a decentralized buy-and-build platform for Germany’s construction sector. His vision is to strengthen regional businesses across the entire civil engineering value chain while preserving their identity and positioning them to address future challenges such as skilled labor shortages, digital transformation, operational excellence, and sustainable growth.

Through this approach, Dr. Sojka represents a modern yet pragmatic vision of entrepreneurship in Germany’s construction industry—one built on partnership, long-term commitment, and a clear conviction that strong regional construction companies are essential to the country’s future economic resilience and infrastructure development.
