My name is Dr. Andreas Schmitz. Since 2007,<\/strong> I have been<\/strong> supporting companies at executive level<\/strong> for short, medium or longer-term engagements, taking on the role of CEO, COO <\/strong>or CSO<\/strong>. In the case of longer mandates with corporate bodies, permanent employment is of course also an option. <\/p>\n

My activities focus on plant management<\/strong> and multisite management<\/strong>, tasks in the areas of sales<\/strong>, business development<\/strong>, business models<\/strong>, digitalization<\/strong> and Industry 4.0<\/strong>, as well as supply chain management<\/strong>, lean management<\/strong> and change and turnaround management<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

I focus on companies with medium-sized structures<\/strong> from the plant engineering, automotive, electrical and mechanical engineering, metalworking and process industries. The companies are internationally positioned. I have particular expertise and experience in the countries and regions of Germany, Eastern Europe<\/strong>, Russia<\/strong>, the USA<\/strong> and China<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
