Press release
Lorenz will assume the position of Chief Finance Officer (CFO) at ECE Marketplaces, where he will be responsible for Corporate Governance & Finance. He has been with ECE for more than 16 years in various leadership roles, most recently serving as Director overseeing Group Controlling and Risk Management.
Robert Heinemann, who has been with the company for 27 years and has served as Managing Director since 2017, will going forward oversee the Corporate Services divisions at ECE Marketplaces—responsibilities he currently holds within ECE Group Services.
The management board of ECE Marketplaces will therefore consist of Joanna Fisher as CEO, Robert Heinemann as Managing Director, and Jan Lorenz as CFO.
As part of these changes, Arndt Schwerdtfeger, previously Managing Director Architecture & Construction at ECE Group Services, will also move to ECE Marketplaces. He will head the newly established Technical Portfolio & Project Management division, which consolidates the company’s technical expertise across architecture, construction, technical operations, and sustainability. He will also continue to oversee ECE’s Asia business as Managing Director of the relevant subsidiary.
“I am pleased that we are now integrating our internal service company into ECE Marketplaces and thereby continuing the strategic path we began five years ago to position retail real estate as an independent business within the ECE Group.”
Joanna Fisher, CEO of ECE Marketplaces
Steffen Eric Friedlein, most recently Managing Director Leasing Services at ECE Marketplaces, will shift his focus to strategic tenant and investor relations as well as major project development. He will also take on the role of Managing Director at ECE International Services.
