Tanja Winter's affinity for copper is more than just skin deep — it's in her blood. Her journey into the copper products industry began at Berkenhoff GmbH, Germany, where she started as a teenager during her school holidays.

Upon finishing her studies, Tanja joined the Rolled Products division at Gebr. Kemper in Olpe, where she excelled as Sales Manager for Asia-Pacific/India/Americas.
Since 2015, she has been a pivotal member of Aurubis Sales Copper Products in Hamburg, initially as Area Sales Manager Germany and CEE, before rising to the role of Head of Sales Rod in 2016.
In 2019, Tanja co-founded WoMen4Metals, an initiative dedicated to industry branding and female empowerment, where she continues to serve as a devoted Board Member.
Beyond her corporate roles, Tanja actively represents Aurubis in esteemed councils such as the International Copper Association and the LME Physical Markets Committee.
