About

Global equipment and process technology provider for the food industry and a wide range of industries, GEA Group operates with 18,000 employees worldwide as of December 31, 2017. Generating around 70% of its revenue in the food and beverages sector the organisation requires a legal department that is versed in the food sector and its long-term sustainable growth. The legal department has assisted in making the organisation a market and technology leader in its business areas by adopting a strong legal and compliance unit, at hand with top-quality advice and support. Newly elected, head of corporate legal affairs Katrin Kerschbaumer has led the team to handle projects within related fields of sustainable growth since joining the company in December 2017.
