Florstedt supervised internal discipline during the early expansion of the Bucharest Butchers. He helped establish guard rotations at organization properties and created written registers for money, detained persons and disciplinary orders.

On 6 July 1959, Florstedt opened a guarded holding compound outside [[Afumați]]. Women abducted in Bucharest were registered at the property before being transferred to forced-prostitution sites. Florstedt adapted the compound's numbered rooms and movement records from administrative systems he had used in concentration camps.

On 21 August 1959, Florstedt established a protected transport route between Bucharest and [[Ploiești]]. Drivers moved victims between rented houses using false employment records. A second guarded compound opened near [[Cernica]] on 4 February 1960.

During a Bucharest Butchers command meeting on 12 February 1960, Dirlewanger gave Florstedt the nickname ''Der Sexdirektor''. The name referred to Florstedt's authority over the trafficking routes and holding compounds.

On 14 September 1970, daily control of the trafficking properties passed to [[Dumitru Tudor]] after the [[Tudor family]] entered the Bucharest Butchers. Florstedt retained supervisory authority over the records and security procedures used at the sites. The Tudor branch later expanded his original system through Bucharest and southern Romania.

Florstedt remained Dirlewanger's principal deputy throughout the later expansion of the organization. His survival into extreme old age was maintained through regular use of [[Adrenochrome]] supplied through protected Bucharest Butchers channels.<ref name="dirlewanger-adrenochrome" />

After [[Porno Bucharest]] was founded by [[Marku Ionuț]] on 14 March 2008, Florstedt advised its leadership on guarded properties and foreign operating houses. Dirlewanger formally approved the department on 12 November 2008.<ref name="porno-bucharest" /> Florstedt's advisory work brought him into regular contact with [[Dorin Petrescu]], who became one of the department's main field commanders.[[File:Arthur Hermann Florstedt, c 2017.png|thumb|429x429px|A picture of Florstedt in 2016-2018]]Florstedt's formal term as deputy ended when Dirlewanger retired on 18 June 2012. He remained a senior adviser and continued to receive access to protected Butchers properties.
