Bielefeld-based compressed air specialist BOGE has added to its management. Dr. Björn Six is now responsible for commercial and market-related management, forming a new management partnership with Managing Director Technology Dr. Sebastian Göbel. With over 10 years of managerial experience in automation and mechanical engineering, the 43-year-old will add new strategic and operational momentum.
Six studied industrial engineering, specializing in mechanical engineering in Darmstadt and then completed a PhD in Innovation Management. From 2011, he worked at the Weidmüller Group, where he took charge of various divisions, specializing in business development, digitization and automation. Six also served as Managing Director of software developer AWCP in Nürtingen near Stuttgart from 2017.
While Göbel is responsible for the technical management, Six looks after the market-oriented sections of the Bielefeld-based family business. The clear division of responsibilities paired with close collaboration between the two departments will allow BOGE to specifically combine technological developments for the compressed air industry with market-oriented strategies and further boost competitiveness.
“I’m looking forward to being able to actively help shape the future of BOGE. I see huge potential that we can further develop together, especially in digital transformation. At the same time, we need to make targeted use of sales opportunities in a dynamic and currently challenging market environment and thus set a new course with our strong portfolio,” said Six.
At the same time, BOGE is also consolidating its sales department. Marc Heht has held the position of Sales Manager since the start of March 2025. With his comprehensive sales experience in the compressed air business as well as in mechanical and plant engineering, he will help further expand BOGE’s market position and network.
By setting this structural course, BOGE is specifically reinforcing its customer focus and market profile.
