Restructuring Power Decisions Announced by New Press Company and Media Holding South
The Neue Pressegesellschaft (NPG) has announced a significant reshuffle in its management team, following the approval of the sale of a majority (82%) of Medienholding Süd to the NPG by the Bundeskartellamt at the end of June.
Tilo Schelsky, currently at NPG Medienhäuser in Brandenburg, is moving to Stuttgart to chair the NPG Management Board. He will be joined by Andreas Simmet and Matthias Bikowski, who are already part of the NPG Management Board. Tim Hager, Carsten Huber, Carsten Groß, and Thomas Radek, heads of regional media houses, will also oversee the Stuttgarter Zeitungsgruppe in Stuttgart.
In Ulm, Herbert Dachs, Managing Director at MHS, will join the management of Neue Pressegesellschaft. Kathrin Heckner, responsible for Human Resources, and Christian Friske, overseeing Logistics and Production, will continue to serve on the eight-member management board of the NPG.
The reshuffle is part of the NPG's efforts to streamline its structures. The 'Südwest Presse' and the 'Schwarzwälder Bote' will form a new media house under the NPG umbrella. In Brandenburg, the media house will now be headed by Thomas Radek (Chairman) and Marc Nickol, with Nickol stepping in as publishing director after his previous role as head of a regional media house.
Marc Nickol was previously the publishing director for Brandenburg. The new leadership body of the NPG is an eight-member management board, with Daniel Torka taking on the responsibility for Digital, Markets, and Transformation.
As of my last knowledge in October 2023, the Chairman of the Stuttgarter Zeitungsgruppe (now part of the Stuttgarter Nachrichten GmbH) has not been explicitly specified. For the latest information, it is best to consult the official website of the Stuttgarter Nachrichten or other reliable sources.
