After studying economics at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, Robert Diedrich began his professional career in 1994 as the first permanent employee at the newly founded WE-EF Lighting Pty Ltd in Melbourne. There he worked in various positions, including in marketing, sales and logistics, and was instrumental in building and establishing the WE-EF brand in Australia and New Zealand. In 2007, the native Australian moved to WE-EF LEUCHTEN GmbH in Bispingen, Lower Saxony, where he has since continuously developed and expanded marketing in the WE-EF markets of Europe and the Middle East. He is more familiar with the company's strong DNA than almost anyone else. Founded in 1950 as an owner-managed family business, WE-EF has been part of the Fagerhult Group since 2017, a leading company in the professional lighting industry, which is one of the three largest in Europe and has a global presence with a total of 12 brands.",
