FLSmidth Pfister and FLSmidth Ventomatic have appointed Stephan Oehme to the new position of Global Sales Director.

Mr Oehme holds a degree in mechanical engineering. Before joining FLSmidth, he spent over 14 years at Claudius Peters, most recently as Director of Sales and Technology.

Part of his role will be the expansion of Pfister and Ventomatics business beyond the cement industry, where they both play a leading role, into adjacent business areas through organic growth, Oehme said in a statement.
