Gese Wechel (born in Hamburg, died in Lübeck 1645), was the managing director of the Swedish Post Office, Postverket from 1637 until 1642.
Gese Wechel was originally a domestic servant in the household of the Swedish envoy in Hamburg in Germany.
In 1636, the Swedish Post Office was founded, and she followed her husband to Sweden, where he received the position as its first managing director.
In 1637, she became a widow and continued to manage the post office, and 25 October 1638 she was officially confirmed in her position as director with the acknowledgement that she had already functioned as such for two years.
She worked alongside Steen von Steenhausen, who tended to the juridical matters of the office, and all orders were to be signed by them jointly.
