SCHOTTEL GmbH is pleased to announce the appointment of Holger Trecksel as Managing Director of its subsidiary SCHOTTEL Far East, effective 1 July 2025. He succeeds Joachim Schein, who has played a pivotal role in the company’s development and success over the past two decades.
Holger Trecksel brings 23 years of experience in the maritime industry to his new role. Holding degrees in naval architecture and business administration, he became familiar with SCHOTTEL early in his career. Since then, he has held increasingly senior positions across at various maritime companies. To ensure a seamless transition, he has been working closely with Joachim Schein in recent months.
“We warmly welcome Holger Trecksel to his new position,” said Roland Schwandt, Deputy CEO of SCHOTTEL GmbH. “Holger has demonstrated that he is well-prepared to build on the strong foundation laid by Joachim Schein. We are confident that he will further enhance SCHOTTEL’s presence and partnerships in Southeast Asia, East Australasia, and Oceania.”
At the same time, Roland Schwandt extends his sincere gratitude to Joachim Schein for his exceptional service and visionary leadership. “Over the course of more than 30 years with the company, Joachim has brought energy, expertise, and reliability to every role he has held—whether in Germany, the U.S., or Singapore. Since joining SCHOTTEL Far East in its early days as Service Manager and later becoming Managing Director in 2012, Joachim has been instrumental in transforming the company into a respected leader in the regional maritime industry.” SCHOTTEL is also pleased to announce that Joachim Schein will continue to contribute his expertise in a new capacity, focusing on engineering and service matters. “We wish both Holger and Joachim continued success in their new roles,” concludes Roland Schwandt.
