en.Wedoany.com Reported - Neptun Werft is set to undergo a leadership transition, with Leif Eisenheim taking over as Managing Director and CEO of the Rostock-Warnemünde-based shipbuilding company on December 1, 2026 (or earlier). The company is part of the Meyer Werft Group.
Eisenheim will succeed Stephan Happe, who temporarily took over the shipyard's leadership at the beginning of this year. Happe will remain in the Neptun Werft management team until December 31, 2026, to ensure a smooth transition at the top of the company.
Born in Hamburg, Eisenheim has served as Senior Vice President at DB Fahrzeuginstandhaltung GmbH since 2022, overseeing operations at the Dessau and Chemnitz plants. These two plants, operating jointly with around 1,400 employees, are the largest maintenance centers of Deutsche Bahn, responsible for the maintenance, repair, and modernization of numerous components for electric locomotives, ICE high-speed trains, and other rail vehicles.
Prior to joining Deutsche Bahn, Eisenheim worked at Airbus Operations GmbH for 16 years, stationed in Germany and various overseas locations. His most recent role was Director of Procurement Operations for Airbus civil and military aircraft programs.
After the transition is complete, the management team of Neptun Werft will include Leif Eisenheim (CEO), André Walter (who will become CEO of Meyer Werft on July 1, 2026), and Meyer Werft Chief Restructuring Officer Ralf Schmitz.
