Andreas Niegsch Replaces Marco Molinari At Goodyear Dunlop UK

On December 1st, Andreas Niegsch will be appointed General Manager of Goodyear Dunlop UK, replacing Marco Molinari, who is leaving the company to pursue other interests. Molinari’s current position of Group Managing Director will be eliminated. Niegsch will report to Robin McKnight, MD of Goodyear Dunlop sales countries, western Europe.

Niegsch originally joined Dunlop Germany in 1998 as manager, sales countries, western Europe and was appointed director the following year. In 2001 he assumed his current position as director of marketing and sales for Goodyear’s Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa region. The UK manufacturing operations at Wolverhampton and Washington will report directly to the European regional manufacturing HQ in Luxembourg, as part of the current policy to centralise product sourcing to obtain maximum efficiencies.
