German turbine manufacturer Enercon is setting up a management team to support managing director Hans-Dieter Kettwig.
The team is made up of Jost Backhaus, Jorg Scholle, Thomas Cobet and Momme Janssen, the company said.
Backhaus has worked for Enercon for several years, most recently in production management, and will now be responsible for the operational units.
Scholle will cover technological developments and Cobet financial matters.
Janssen has worked as HR manager at Enercon and under the new managerial structure he will bundle human resources together with other areas relevant for the company’s new orientation.
A role will also be created at management level that will integrate all of the activities involved in the company’s reorientation, Enercon said.
The holder of the position will combine and advance these activities, it added.
“The reorganisation of management will ensure Enercon is in an even better position to meet the highly dynamic current and future requirements linked with the company’s increased international focus,” the company said.
“The new management structure will allow Enercon to act even more quickly and effectively when tapping new markets and business segments,” it added.
Aloys Wobben Stiftung board chairman Heiko Janssen said: “We are confident that this management team will ensure Enercon can deal with the challenges that come with its new focus on international markets and on tapping into new business segments.
“They are jobs that demand a lot of responsibility in a highly dynamic environment and require all the support possible.”
The Aloys Wobben Stiftung trust is the sole shareholder of Enercon and all of the companies that belong to it.
