With effect from 1 July 2012 Mr Dirk Rabe will be appointed to the management board of the Leichlingen-based company BÄRO GmbH & Co. KG. In this function he will continue to be responsible for Materials Management, as he has been since joining the company.
Prior to joining BÄRO in January 2006, Mr Rabe, a graduate Electrical Engineer, was employed for more than 13 years by the Lüdenscheid luminaire manufacturer Hoffmeister in a similar position. During his employment there he also completed a postgraduate course in Industrial Engineering.
Commenting on the appointment of Mr Rabe and the expansion of the management board Managing Director J. Manuel von Möller says: "Given the growing interconnectedness of the procurement of components internationally and the dynamically increasing complexity of the products and technologies used, we have decided to place the entire mission-critical remit of materials management directly with the board of management. With his professional background and his many years of experience at the company Dirk Rabe is absolutely predestined to actively bring this important structural change forward."
