Andreas Hink
CEO since 2001

Andreas Hink – Unternehmens- und Personalberatung has been providing strategic consulting and executive search since 2001. Based in the Rhein-Main region, we support small to medium-sized enterprises — from startups to specialized firms — in filling key positions and driving strategic growth.

My expertise lies in placing professionals within Germany, Austria and Switzerland. I know the companies, the networks and the decision-makers from over 25 years of hands-on consulting experience. Whether you need an executive for your next growth phase or a specialist to complete your team — I connect you with the right candidates.

My approach is entrepreneurial, pragmatic and results-oriented. With 25+ years as an entrepreneur and senior consultant, I bring both strategic perspective and operational know-how. I have run companies, built teams and established sales structures myself — I know what it takes.

Through a strong network of established partners — including Heiden Associates, SchwartingConsulting and Graf Matuschka Personalberatung — we conduct executive search mandates with the depth and speed of a large firm, combined with the personal commitment of a boutique consultant.
