Rainer Horn to take over global communications at Hamburg Süd

Hamburg Süd has appointed Rainer Horn as its new global head of corporate communications, following Eva Graumann’s decision to step down after nearly 25 years.

Mr Horn joined Hamburg Süd in December after almost a decade at Hapag-Lloyd, where he served as director for internal and external communications.

Ms Graumann joined the German carrier’s comms team in 1993 and, in 1996, began building it up as the shipping line sought to improve brand exposure.
