New dual leadership at Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise: Dirk Grafe becomes Managing Director of ALE Deutschland GmbH

Kornwestheim, February 14, 2022 - Dirk Grafe has stepped up to the management of ALE Deutschland GmbH, succeeding Heinz Gontsch following his retirement. Since the beginning of the year, Dirk has formed a productive dual leadership with Jürgen Reintjes, who also remains Managing Director.

As such, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, a leading provider of communications, networking and cloud solutions tailored to customers’ industries, will continue to be led by two managing directors in the German market.

Dirk Grafe joined ALE Germany in 2015 after working for Deutsche Telekom for more than thirteen years, nine of which were spent in various management positions. In addition to his new position as Managing Director, Dirk remains the Country Business Leader for Germany, a role he has held since 2021.

At a time when almost all customers are pushing ahead with their digitalisation process, we can make a lot happen. In previous roles, I had already noticed that demand was particularly high in Germany for technological solutions, advice and know-how. Together with my colleagues, as a client-focused and dedicated company, we want to continue to offer our customers investment security and state-of-the-art technology.
