Marco von Ah new Head of Communication and Marketing at PH Luzern
Marco von Ah is the new head of the Communications and Marketing Department at the Lucerne University of Teacher Education (PH Luzern). The former head of media at the Swiss Football Association (SFV) will take over the position from Philipp Berger on December 16.
As head of communications and marketing at PH Luzern, von Ah will be responsible for internal and external communications, public relations, marketing activities and the activity report, among other things, PH Luzern announced on Friday.
The 57-year-old Horwer had joined the SFV in 2008 at the request of then national team coach Ottmar Hitzfeld. This summer, he relinquished his position as media officer for the national teams after a report investigated the association's structures in the wake of what happened during the 2018 World Cup finals in Russia ("double eagle affair") (Werbewoche.ch reported). Previously, von Ah worked as a journalist and department head.
His predecessor Philipp Berger is leaving the PH Luzern at his own request at the end of 2019 to take up a new professional challenge. The PH Luzern trains teachers for elementary school, high school, vocational and adult education, as well as special education teachers. Currently, around 2260 people are studying at the PH Luzern.
