TE Communications

THOMAS EGGER

OWNER AND FOUNDER

Thomas has a background in private banking and asset management. Various stations at Julius Bär and Bellevue AM allow him to contribute profound knowledge at eye level. He represents the agency's Swiss corporate culture: focused on quality, collaborative, solution-oriented, and efficient.

BIRTE ORTH-FREESE

CEO

Birte has a degree in journalism and communication science and has remained loyal to the agency business from the very beginning. She loves creative stories, which she likes to work on early in the morning, as the operational business keeps her busy during the day. She is most often seen speaking to colleagues, journalists, and clients.

CAROLINE JANSEN

SENIOR CONSULTANT

Caroline has experience on both the corporate and agency side. After working in Munich and Frankfurt, she moved to Switzerland a few years ago, where she has found her new home. Since then, she has been managing the client and journalist network in the German-speaking part of Switzerland. She also still likes to pick up the phone, or cell phone as it is called today.

MARIELLE MOREROD

SENIOR CONSULTANT

Marielle has a background in private banking and asset management. Based in Lausanne, she manages TE clients in French-speaking Switzerland. She knows (almost) all journalists personally, translates texts into French in no time at all and is always in a good mood. A problem - none for her.

TINA SERMANSON

SENIOR CONSULTANT

Many assume Tina is from Scandinavia, but she has lived in Paris for a long time and both her children are growing up bilingual. No matter what, Tina tackles the tasks and finds a way. Just give it a try...

STEFFI WENKEL

SENIOR CONSULTANT

Before immersing herself in the agency world, Steffi trained as a TV editor and worked as a journalist for television. In the meantime, she was responsible for corporate communications at Aareal Bank and Deutsche Börse. Today, you may still find her working with camera crews at agency clients' offices.

JULIA WERNIG

SENIOR CONSULTANT

Julia pulls the strings for her clients and knows exactly what deadlines and activities are coming up. She is a real family person and her agency colleagues notice that too when she once again prepares a fruit platter for everyone. In fact, no client could be better looked after.

ANNA KOLL

CONSULTANT

Anna is originally from Stuttgart and her Swabian diligence and accuracy in every detail is appreciated by her clients every day. Her English is international throughout all project calls. Outside the agency, she likes to test new restaurants in Frankfurt.

ALYSHA BADERTSCHER

CONSULTANT

LENA KNIERIM

CONSULTANT

Lena's favorite projects in the agency are events and marketing projects. So if you ever want to be invited to a TE event in Zurich or Frankfurt, Lena is the right person to talk to. Besides that, she creates new ideas with Thomas for the European agency network Fincom, where TE was a founding member.

JULE FRIEDRICH

JUNIOR CREATIVE DIGITAL SPECIALIST

Jule has a degree in design and even though she's in her mid-20s, she already has her own podcast. She loves new ideas and formats as much as she loves her beautiful home in the southern Palatinate. In her free time she likes to express herself artistically, whether it's drawing, photography or embroidery.

DR. MATTHIAS WÜHLE

HEAD OF NEWSROOM AND SENIOR CONSULTANT

As a historian with a PhD, Matthias can't be shocked by a dry 30-page white paper. He will always find a connection to a current story. And he likes to discuss them - old school - on the phone with journalists. You have certainly already indirectly read many articles by him and his clients in Handelsblatt & Co.

ANNE-CATHERINE BECK

VIDEO & CONTENT WRITER

Many people surely know Anne-Catherine from ARD Börse, when she speaks to experts looking for the latest trends & explanations in the financial world. This is also her specialty here: classifying facts and untangling complex contexts. Her favorite topic at the moment: inflation.

DR. MARKO GRÄNITZ

CONTENT WRITER INSTITUTIONAL

Both in his private and professional life, Marko is a man of endurance. For the ambitious ultra runner, perseverance is the daily rule. Proof of this can be found not only in his difficult white papers and texts, but also in his role as the father of a sweet daughter who was born in 2022.

DR. DANIELA HAMAN

CONTENT WRITER ENGLISH

Deepl is convenient, but not when it comes to producing excellent, stylistically correct English texts. And that's exactly what Daniela does. American or British - she can do both. In addition, she has many years of experience as a journalist. No matter what the topic, she always finds an exciting angle.

ANDREA HESSLER

CONTENT WRITER

An experienced journalist for many years, Andrea has probably written about every topic in the financial world; and still burns with enthusiasm for every conversation and text. She also conducts extensive research. Originally from Baden-Württemberg, she has lived in Hamburg for many years and the Alster and its culinary hotspots are clearly her favourite place in the far north.

CAROLIN PREUSSE

CONTENT WRITER

Carolin was responsible for several trade magazines. This included being editor-in-chief of BANK MAGAZIN and managing editor of Anlagepraxis. With a growing family, she set up her own business as a freelance journalist and has never looked back. Thus, the topics and tasks are diverse and the meantime, and the children have grown up in the meantime.

STEFAN RIEDEL

CONTENT WRITER

Stefan is a real all-rounder when it comes to financial market topics. But he is very deeply rooted in the healthcare industry. There is no new therapeutic approach he is not aware of, and ideas for exciting articles sometimes come to him during an evening walk with the dog. To relax, he likes to spend time in Italy and in the mountains.

BJÖRN HARMS

IT AND DIGITAL EXPERT

Fortunately, computers hardly ever get stuck these days, but when they do, Björn is there to help. He knows hardware and software equally well, an all-round carefree service, so to speak. And if the Teamviewer doesn't work, he sometimes rides around the corner on his motorcycle.

TIMM SEDLMAIR

SENIOR ART DIRECTOR

Content is the most important thing, but a beautiful package makes it stand out even more. And that's exactly how Timm presents his landing pages, brochures, job ads and logos. To balance things out, in his spare time, he can be found either in the woods or playing the guitar.

LISA LABATZKY

DIGITAL CONTENT

How do lots of people see the latest LinkedIn post (besides a sophisticated algorithm)? Lisa creates a stunning image that fits the story. Design does look different when professionals do it (or are on their way to doing it). Unfortunately, since she's returned home, we don't have her in the office that often anymore.

CHRISTIAN SCHMIDT

DIGITAL CONTENT

Just send an e-mail with a request, and the desired item is already in the mailbox. Christian works at lightning speed, with great enthusiasm and power. He also has a big heart and likes to do yoga in his spare time to relax. Otherwise, the cineaste can often be found at the cinema.

KATHARINA FUCKNER

DIGITAL CONTENT

The reports have to be accurate, whether on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Katharina manages the clippings reliably and comprehensively. But research topics, translations and the next ECB deadlines are also on her to-do list. To relax, she likes to read a good book or go to the movies.
