english Introducing the new consultant

Katrin Brummermann has recently joined the RSV office. She is taking over some of the duties of Reinhild Haacker, who is leaving the RSV at the end of July.

More members, a broader range of tasks and many projects - the RSV has been on a strong growth trajectory for some time now. As part of the planned merger with the GSTT, the RSV board also started looking for reinforcement some time ago and found what it was looking for. Katrin Brummermann has joined the RSV team as "Technical Officer". The civil engineering graduate not only has experience in the technical field, but also in public relations. "This job is a great new challenge for me. I'm looking forward to the work, because I see great potential in the interface between technical content and communication to the specialist public."

The first few working days will initially be spent familiarising herself with the processes in the joint. The employees Denise Rottewert and Reinhild Haacker primarily work from home - the Hanoverian will also do this. "I am impressed by the good and trusting cooperation between the board, the office and the members of the RSV and I am really looking forward to getting to know the members soon," says Katrin Brummermann.

Previous stations

The civil engineer and technical editor studied civil engineering at the University of Hanover and completed her doctorate in the field of geotechnics. Brummermann has actually had contact with sewer rehabilitation several times in the past. Her professional stations were:

  • Leibniz University Hanover

    • Institute of Foundation Engineering, Soil Mechanics and Hydraulic Power Engineering
    • Franzius Institute for Hydraulic and Coastal Engineering
    • Institute for Building Materials

  • VGE Verlag GmbH and Bauverlag BV GmbH
  • Münster University of Applied Sciences and Kiwa TBU GmbH
  • GeoResources Publishing House

For Katrin Brummermann, her technically orientated work as an engineer in research, teaching, testing and quality assurance etc. always included good verbal and written communication within the work team, with customers, specialist committees, the respective specialist public and, last but not least, with junior staff. This was also the motivation for her part-time Master's degree in Technical Communication and her work as editor-in-chief for established specialist publications with a focus on geotechnics and tunnelling and the founding of the independent trade journal GeoResources as part of a small team. Exchange and co-operation with professional associations and their members, the authors and of course the readership were an inspiring part of her activities as a specialist editor and network coordinator.
