Head of Marketing Janine Greuter left us at the end of October. Prior to the merger phase, she managed the Winterthur Tourism Association on an interim basis. The following departures are also to be mentioned: Peter Markwalder (Tourist Information team leader), Barbara Büchi (guest advisor), Sarah Meier (intern) and the two apprentices from the city administration, Antonella Cresta (she successfully completed her commercial apprenticeship in the summer) and Jasmin Screta (1st year apprentice). City administration apprentices can complete one year at a time at House of Winterthur.

Two new apprentices have joined us, namely Chantal Schärer (3rd year of apprenticeship) and Sarina Tischhauser (1st year of apprenticeship). We also welcomed two new project assistants: Gina Ochsner (Business & Meeting / Marketing) and Vivianne Emanuel (Visitors & Residents / Communication). Maurizia Bänteli, the former guest advisor and store manager, has taken over as team leader in Tourist Information. Domenica Appenzeller has returned to the guest advisory team. Seraina Heierli has been brought on board as the new Head of Marketing & Communication. In her role, she is also part of the management team.
