Bock creates dual leadership – Cooling Post

GERMANY: Compressor manufacturer Bock GmbH has appointed Stephan Schumann as managing director sales and marketing.

Schumann now forms a new dual leadership of the Frickenhausen-based company with existing CEO Dr Marcus Albrecht. With Schumann responsible for the sales and marketing function, Albrecht assumes responsibility for finance, supply chain, human resources and R&D.
