Change at the top: New boss for wood -wrapped fire brigade!

In Holzwickede, a significant change of management is imminent at the head of the volunteer fire brigade. From January 2024, Jonas Beckmann will take over the management after the previous boss, municipal fire inspector Jürgen Luhmann, is no longer available for a further term for health reasons, such as the Hellweger Anzeiger reported. Beckmann will take up the position at a time when the fire brigade faces challenges. His deputy, Werner Kohlmann, has also been provisional since October 2016 after he was officially left out.

new management team is presented

The new management of the volunteer fire brigade recently introduced itself to the municipality's main and finance committee. Peter Höttemann, Marco Schäfer and Enrico Birkenfeld were designed as new managers. The municipal council will be appointed next week, whereby they will initially work in provisional positions due to formal requirements, as the head of department Matthias Aufermann explained in a report by Emscherblog . All three candidates meet the necessary technical prerequisites for their new offices.

This change of personnel comes at a critical time, since the fire brigade in Holzwickede takes part in upcoming exercises and operations. The commitment and skills of the new managers will be crucial to master the willingness and moral strength of the volunteer fire brigade and successfully master the challenges that are in front of them.
