OUR TEAM

Fabian Amrath Deputy Head of Finance, Accounting & Contracts Department

“I started as a student assistant over 5 years ago. AFC gave me the opportunity to develop my skills and myself and to contribute to the success of interesting projects around the world. I look forward to the future of AFC, because of the amazing team, interesting problems to challenge and the good working atmosphere.”

Nina Thurn, Deputy Head of Agriculture & Agribusiness –Anglophone Department

“I started working at AFC as a short-term expert in a project in China in the beginning of 2019 and joined the Anglophone agricultural team afterwards at AFC headquarter. Right from the start, I particularly enjoyed working in a company that operates worldwide with great technical expertise. A very good knowledge exchange between colleagues and flat hierarchies are, in my opinion, one of the great advantages of AFC. Even in critical situations, you can rely on the support of your colleagues and the management.”

Annie Stephanie Nana Junior Consultant and Project Manager of Agriculture & Agribusiness – Francophone Department

“Since about one year I am working with AFC and it is an enriching experience with each day offering new opportunities and challenges. I like working in international cooperation projects, because we get to travel and interact with colleagues from various nationalities and cultural backgrounds. The company also offers opportunities to grow professionally by sponsoring external courses to pick up more skills, which will be useful for my career.”

Béatrice Bouju Project Assistant of Agriculture & Agribusiness – Francophone Department

“After 35 years with the company, AFC has become a very important part of my life. Here I have learned everything concerning agriculture, agribusiness and financing systems. In addition, neither the term “deadline”, nor the importance of working under pressure is unfamiliar to me anymore. Nevertheless, you do not find such a team spirit as at AFC everywhere!”

Sigitas Bubnys Deputy Head of Financial Sector Development Department

“You can be in a hell and feel like in a heaven as long as you are in such the good company like AFC. I enjoy and feel gifted working for this highly professional and qualified company, surrounded by the most talented staff.”

Medina Hromadzic Accountant of Finance, Accounting & Contracts Department

“I work for AFC since three years and I like working in an international environment with great colleagues from all over the world. Considering that I come from Bosnia and Herzegovina, a small country, which is still recovering from the consequences of war, I have a special honour to work in a company that supports projects in other developing countries and emerging economies.”

Alexis Nyamugira Consultant and Project Manager of Financial Sector Development Department

“Working for Agriculture & Finance Consultants on projects related to Financial Sector Development is an incredibly rewarding and impactful experience. During the last two years, I have been working on projects on biodiversity finance, solar energy finance, and access to finance for farmers, working with a diverse group of professionals. Working in international cooperation is an exciting and fulfilling career path for those interested in making a positive impact on the world and advancing global economic growth.”

Johannes Geisen Senior Consultant and Project Manager of Agriculture & Agribusiness – Anglophone Department

“After working in various positions in the Philippines for 10 years, I joined AFC in August 1999. What I appreciate most about AFC since then is the work ethics and professional attitude of the staff, as well as the multicultural composition of the teams and the mixed age composition, which ensures the transfer of knowledge and experience on the one hand and the introduction of new, modern perspectives on the other. A good team culture and a beneficiary-oriented mindset characterise AFC. Due to the broad technical spectrum and the variety of customers served, working at AFC is never boring!”

Ahmad Janjan Recruiter and Relationship Manager of Human Resources Department

“I am an Agricultural Engineer specialised in horticulture from the University of Aleppo, Syria, and have been working as a Recruiter and Relationship Manager at AFC in Bonn since August 2017. My tasks include, among others, identifying, approaching, and recruiting experts worldwide. Communication with international experts makes me happy, especially when I can use my mother tongue Arabic, but also English, German, and Turkish.”
