• Christoph Feddersen taking over as Vice President Product Management

London, UK – e-Spirit, a leading supplier of content management solutions, today announced a senior team reshuffle that will strengthen its worldwide partner programme. Andreas Knoor has been appointed new Chief Operating Officer for the US-based e-Spirit Inc. while former COO Robert Bredlau, after four years of heading up e-Spirit Inc., will spearhead the company’s International Partner Management Programme come January 2016.

Robert Bredlau has over 16 years experience working in the content management sector and joined e-Spirit in 2007 as Director International Business Development to expand the company’s global reach. In 2011 he moved to Boston to establish e-Spirit in the United States. Now that this process has been successfully completed, he is returning to Europe as Vice President International Partner Management & Channels.

“With our focus on delivering the industry’s best content management system, partners play an essential role in helping customers implement a comprehensive solution that is truly transformative,” Bredlau said. “We have enjoyed considerable success growing our partner network over the past few years and I look forward to continuing this momentum on a global scale.” e-Spirit’s new COO for North America Andreas Knoor joined the company as a software architect in 2000 and quickly moved into a project manager role before being named Vice President Product Management in 2008. Under his leadership, e-Spirit has maintained its focus on providing the industry’s best Web content management solution for usability, scalability and integration with other best-of-breed technologies.

“As companies shift their focus to digital transformation and improving the experience for their customers, e-Spirit is incredibly well positioned for success,” Knoor said. “We have a strong organisation, an impressive group of satisfied companies, and the right approach to solving content management challenges. We’re seeing a clear preference for best-of-breed solutions like FirstSpirit in the market as companies make investments in transforming their digital operations and strategies.”

Christoph Feddersen will be taking over Knoor’s previous position as Vice President Product Management. Feddersen joined e-Spirit in 2001 as a consultant in the Professional Services team, he moved to product management in 2010 and was promoted to head of module development in 2014. In his new role he will be responsible for the strategic development of FirstSpirit best-of-breed integrations and product enhancements.
