Brenz has appointed Martin Kaufmann (51), a former top manager from the Voith Group (Heidenheim), to the management board as its new Chief Technical Officer (CTO) and Chief Operating Officer (COO). He replaces Dr. Till Scharf, who has left the company. With Gerhard Glanz as spokesman, Martin Kaufmann now forms the dual leadership at Röhm GmbH.
"I am very pleased that with Martin Kaufmann we have been able to gain an experienced expert for the further development of our company. We have a lot of potential that needs to be leveraged. Here we can make excellent use of Mr. Kaufmann's know-how," says Röhm Managing Director Gerhard Glanz.
Martin Kaufmann comes to Röhm with more than 15 years of management experience, which he gained at the Voith Group. Most recently, Kaufmann was Executive Vice President and CEO of the Voith Turbo Industry Division with headquarters in Crailsheim. At Röhm, Kaufmann will primarily be responsible for the areas of production and technology as well as the supply chain.
"I am very much looking forward to the new task and will do everything in my power to ensure that Röhm can further expand its leading role as an innovative supplier of clamping and gripping devices. As the new products and solutions presented in recent months show, we not only have enormous innovation potential, but also the right spirit," explains Martin Kaufmann.
