Com­pe­tent rein­force­ment in the sales department

Achim Merzbach can look back on an excit­ing pro­fes­sion­al career to date. In 1990, he start­ed as a PLC engi­neer in mechan­i­cal engi­neer­ing at Philips in Aachen. In 1993 he changed to the halo­gen lamp pro­duc­tion at Philips Licht as project man­ag­er in the field of indus­tri­al automa­tion tech­nol­o­gy. In this posi­tion he worked for sev­er­al years. From 1995 he took over the com­plete Fac­to­ry Engi­neer­ing and from 1997 also the pro­duc­tion man­age­ment of the halo­gen lamp man­u­fac­tur­ing and packaging.

Start­ing 2000 he was respon­si­ble for the devel­op­ment, indus­tri­al­iza­tion and automa­tion of the coat­ing depart­ment as main project man­ag­er and lat­er addi­tion­al­ly as depart­ment manager.

In 2010 he again took over the man­age­ment of Fac­to­ry Engi­neer­ing to sup­port the imple­men­ta­tion of LEAN man­age­ment. Here the focus was on TPM (opti­miza­tion of plants, process­es and main­te­nance). Anoth­er focus was the devel­op­ment of the ener­gy man­age­ment system.

In 2018, Achim Merzbach took over site man­age­ment at a soft­ware and IT ser­vice provider with a focus on mar­ket­ing, cus­tomer sup­port and acqui­si­tion and pro­fes­sion­al net­work­ing. The pre­vi­ous knowl­edge of his pre­vi­ous man­age­r­i­al posi­tions and his tech­ni­cal knowl­edge are a great advan­tage when inter­act­ing with customers.
