Reinhard Mirz

(Dipl.-Phys.)

Managing Director
Environmental Verifier/Auditor

Reinhard joined Intechnica in May 1995 and became Managing Director of Intechnica Cert in 2014, heading up all operations that run out of this Certification specialist company. He is a physicist and environmental verifier, currently active as an auditor/certifier in the management systems according to environment, energy, and occupational health and safety.

In addition, his specialist field is waste law and waste management and is intensively involved in the topics of waste management companies, the German Packaging Act (VerpackG) or the German Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG).

He has been described as a workaholic but with a lot of patience, and creative council for his team, however, it doesn’t stop him driving them crazy with feeling he has to continually explain the never-ending standards in the certification process along with all of their updates to everyone.

Luckily with all of this intensity in regularly explaining the detail, he likes a few beers with family and friends to help him relax. We did say “workaholic” didn’t we?

Maria Vorbrugg

Deputy head of the certification body

Maria joined the team in September 2019 and has been deputy head of the certification body since 1.6.2021. Maria is busy, busy, busy, incredibly efficient and widely accomplished.

She has cross-culture, international experience in many different industry sectors. She is not only accomplished in English and a certified translator for Spanish and French and fluent in German of course, because she was born there, but she also has a perfect understanding of Greek, which is her native language. She is also a professional in business administration and operations in CCI.

So all in all, what with her energy and passion for travelling, and investment in friends and family; her description by her colleagues seems to fit –
“A charming pain in the neck who quickly takes responsibility for all kinds of jobs and is gently persuasive with others to get them to comply with all of the internal procedures, we tend to forget about”….busy, busy!

Steffi Quednau

Secretarial team

Steffi has been a reliable part of our Secretarial team since 2003, her role is to prepare and coordinate certification audits, above all DAkkS audits, write the detail of offers and the calculation of audit times, making sure they are executed exactly in-line with internal procedures, which is great for those colleagues who perhaps feel unable to keep to all of the detail all of the time.

Steffi always finds time for a laugh and loves to socialise with her colleagues and friends especially if it involves music and hiking in the countryside.

Henriette Dedecke

Assistant (to the management)

Her experience started in sales and then extended into environmental management, eventually becoming the CSR Manager, where she developed a CSR management system for the company.

Henriette keeps and handles the busy life of Dr. Hiller and the detailed and varied demands at Intechnica with an open and cordial nature and communicates with great calm.
Henriette likes to keep body and mind together holistically, walking in nature and with dance.

Kathrin Wendt

“The fall of the Berlin Wall came at exactly the right time for me to study business administration in beautiful Dresden, travel around the world and improve my English near Birmingham.

I joined Intechnica in 2009 and have since been excited to work in a young, exceptional team and come into contact with customers around the world who live by environmental concerns. A challenge for me is to support the Intechnica team administratively so that everything runs smoothly.”

I am happy with my family and enjoy being a mother, a traveler and constantly out in the garden.

I like winter – especially in the mountains, preferably on the boards downhill.

I don’t like “having to be a good housewife”, packing suitcases and over-organized trips.

Elfi Schnell

Accountant – Controller

Elfi is one of our most important members of staff – she is in control of the money! And having worked on our accounts since 2001, we know we can trust her with them, because she is the one pushing all aspects of project cost-analysis and billing.

There is much more to her job than book keeping, Elfi is the interface with our tax-consultants, having to keep up-to-date with the precise detail of changing tax-laws, and is also in charge of the vehicle fleet-management; so she keeps us as ‘green’ as we can be, by example she drives an E-car and rides an E-bike.

In-line with the Intechnica environmental philosophy Elfi is a great, organic gardener, harvesting a range of her own berries – she is always our pick of the crop!
