Lawyer Uta Bachmann (51) has been Vorarlberg's top police officer since September 1st. In an "Advent interview" with "Krone", the state police director talked about more than just her new job.

"Krone": Ms. Bachmann, have you settled into your new job well?
Uta Bachmann: I arrived well in my new job from the very first second, because day-to-day police work continues as normal. There is no consideration for a change of leadership. There are issues that need to be dealt with and so the settling-in phase runs in parallel. There is a lot to do, but the work is fun and I have a great, motivated team around me that supports me and that I can rely on.
