Andreas Ahammer is a business lawyer by education. He started his career with KPMG as Tax Consultant, soon found out about his desire to work with people and got into the recruiting business. In 2017 he started to work for Bayer AG as a Sourcer of Talent and Recruiter for the divisions of Crop Science and Animal Health. He took part in the integration of Monsanto and was shifting roles to be a global Human Resources Business Partner for multiple matrixed and international units with their employees re-organizing, synergizing and building up structures in an agile environment.
