Renk AG’s supervisory board recently appointed Christian Hammel as executive board member for production and administration. Hammel is currently a member of the executive board responsible for finance at MAN Truck & Bus Österreich AG. After studying business administration at the University of Regensburg, he held various management positions at Sixt AG and at MAN Truck & Bus AG. He has been working at MAN since 2004.

Hammel will be succeeded Ulrich Sauter, who left company for health reasons. He will still be assisting RENK in an advisory capacity for a transition period. Sauter has been on the executive board of RENK AG for almost 20 years.

“The supervisory board would like to thank Mr. Sauter for his excellent work at Renk AG and for his great service to the company. He joined Renk in 1995 amidst difficult times and has since then decisively contributed to Renk's extremely successful development. Renk's success story is not least based on Mr. Sauter’s ability of taking farsighted decisions”, said Dr. Bartölke, chair of the supervisory board.
