Clark European Headquarters: Andreas Krause leaves Clark Europe
As of January 31, 2023, COO Andreas Krause has left Clark Europe at his own request in order to devote himself to other tasks in the future.
Krause had been employed at Clark's European headquarters in Duisburg since 2008 and had been responsible for spare parts, order processing, technical support, IT, the European development center and logistics in the position of Chief Operating Officer (COO) since 2019.
The position of COO will not be filled at Clark Europe. Andreas Krause's areas of responsibility have been redistributed at Clark. In future, Karl Hielscher, Director Logistics, will be responsible for logistics and order processing for trucks and has been granted power of attorney.
In addition to the entire internal logistics, Hielscher's tasks include the workshop, the reconditioning of used vehicles, the spare parts warehouse and customer service for direct sales, which the industrial truck manufacturer established for the Duisburg region in 2018.
