In January 1946, the British Chief Rabbi's Religious Council appointed Rabbi Lubinsky to be the Chief Rabbi of Hanover which was located in the British Zone of Germany. Rabbi Lubinsky was assisted in the Rabbinate by Rabbi Shlomo Zev Zweigenhaft. On several occasions, Rabbi Lubinsky was instrumental in permitting agunot to remarry. Rabbi Lubinsky was also appointed to be one of the member Rabbis of the Vaad Harabonim of The British Zone, which was established and led by Rabbi Yoel Halpern.
