Since January 2, 2024, the Technical Services division at Piepenbrock has two new managing directors: Frank König and Dirk Manniegel. Both bring decades of expertise in facility management.

Piepenbrock offers its customers a broad portfolio of technical services – from building technology to maintenance of production facilities and operational equipment testing to industrial cleaning. With the new leadership team, the family-owned company gains double the expertise: "We are pleased to have gained two such experienced managers and competent contacts for our operations and sales," says Olaf Piepenbrock, managing partner of the company group of the same name. "Piepenbrock has grown strongly in technical services in recent years and has successfully established additional locations in the German market. Now, we are strengthening the division with two new managing directors – to further expand our offerings as a holistic service provider and to realize the next growth step."

Know-how in Facility Management

With 26 years of experience in facility management, Frank König knows exactly what matters in a leadership position in this industry. Over the past four years, he has taken on overall responsibility as managing director of the Gegenbauer subsidiary RGM Facility Management GmbH Berlin for the North-West region. From 2012, König also served as managing director of RGM Retail GmbH Düsseldorf. There, he expanded regional sales and developed the new business model of RGM Retail GmbH. In the management of "Piepenbrock Technical Services GmbH," he will work closely with his long-time colleague Dirk Manniegel. After 25 years as technical manager, head of the central calculation department, and branch manager at various locations at RGM Facility Management GmbH, he also decided to change companies: "After so many years with one employer, the change brings new momentum to my professional life. I am motivated and look forward to bringing Piepenbrock's technical services regionally to our customers," says Manniegel. König agrees: "An exciting new challenge that we will master together as a team."
