After he had previously held civil offices, he was elected to the council of the Hanseatic City of Lübeck in 1738 and temporarily held the office of treasurer in the council. In 1739 there was a scandal in Lübeck because the Lübeck council had to be forced by the citizens to add four more councilors.
