Lehmann's new managing director is Angelskirchen.
In a significant shift in leadership, Sebastian Engelskirchen has taken on the role of CEO at Otto Lehmann GmbH, effective from July 1, 2025. Engelskirchen, who previously served as the main CEO of the Federal Association of Hot-Dip Galvanizers, brings a wealth of experience to his new position.
Otto Lehmann GmbH, a company with significant historical contributions to the development of liquid crystal technology foundational to modern displays, will benefit from Engelskirchen's leadership. As CEO, his responsibilities will include leading the company, overseeing company strategy and operations, and steering technological innovation. Engelskirchen is expected to represent the company in upcoming industry events, alongside other tech executives such as Oliver Schulze, CEO/CTO of related firms.
While Engelskirchen steps into his new role at Otto Lehmann, Tobias Schäfer has taken over his previous position at the Federal Association of Hot-Dip Galvanizers. Schäfer, who joined the association prior to his current CEO role, will now oversee sales, business development, communication, hot-dip galvanizing, and IT architecture.
At Otto Lehmann, Engelskirchen will maintain his focus on these areas, working alongside co-CEO Andreas Batzl. Batzl, who forms part of the dual leadership of Otto Lehmann, will also oversee sales, business development, communication, hot-dip galvanizing, and IT architecture at the company.
Engelskirchen's departure from the Federal Association of Hot-Dip Galvanizers marks the end of a successful tenure, during which he made significant contributions to the industry. His new role at Otto Lehmann promises to bring similar success, given the company's strong legacy in liquid crystal research and display technologies.
