Marc Kowalsky becomes deputy editor-in-chief of Bilanz

The Swiss business magazine Bilanz is getting a new deputy editor-in-chief. As of June 1, 37-year-old Marc Kowalsky will join the editorial team. Kowalsky already worked at Bilanz from 1997 to 2006, most recently as a member of the editor-in-chief. He currently works in the economics department of Weltwoche and was previously a member of the editorial board and head of the economics department at the news magazine Facts. At Bilanz, he replaces Pierre-André Schmitt, who is moving to the editorial department of Fachmedien Mobil in the Tamedia publishing house, and will become second deputy editor-in-chief alongside Stefan Barmettler. This was announced by Bilanz parent company Axel Springer Schweiz in a statement on Monday.  
Bilanz also has a new art director. Wernie Baumeler, 44, was previously Art Director and member of the management board at Archithema-Verlag in Zurich for four years, where he was responsible for the design magazines Ideales Heim and Atrium, among others.
