Our present head of sales Uwe Wagner will be leaving Kuhn Special Steel for personal reasons, on 31st December 2013, to continue his career elsewhere. It has been announced that his successor Lutz Buchholz will take up his post on 1st January 2014. His deputy will be Andreas Suppes from Technical Sales.
Uwe Wagner began his career at the company in 2009, and worked with Lutz Buchholz on the expansion of our international sales operation.
“Uwe Wagner and his team have jointly managed to expand significantly our market position in the international arena, thereby considerably increasing the success of the Kuhn Group as a whole.” says Group CEO Andre Kuhn.
“We regret that he is leaving our organisation, while thanking him for his valuable work and wishing him great success for the future.”
Lutz Buchholz, the new head of sales at Kuhn Edelstahlgießerei GmbH, also joined the company in 2009, and has been in charge of exports from the very start.
“Lutz Buchholz does not just offer outstanding experience in sales; his prominent position as export manager has turned him into a familiar face for many of our customers and colleagues, thereby complementing his excellent knowledge of our business and the sector in which it operates.” says Andre Kuhn.
“Mr Buchholz enjoys our full confidence, and we are sure that he will continue to develop positively, together with Andreas Suppes, the sales operation of Kuhn Edelstahlgießerei GmbH. The entire management team is at his side, and we wish him every success in his new role.”
Andreas Suppes joined Kuhn Special Steel in 1997, and has occupied various posts in the intervening period. He currently takes care of our major customers as part of his role in Key Accounts and his control of sales management at Kuhn Hydraulics GmbH.
Export management will be, from 1st January 2014 onwards, in the hands of Marcel Klein, who has already forged a successful career in the company as a buyer and internationally-active salesman.
“We have managed to secure, with this new sales-management team of seasoned veterans, both our future success in the market and our ability to continue to offer our customers the crucial added value that they have come to expect from the Kuhn Group.” concludes Andre Kuhn.
