Gery Bruederlin, currently global head of HR in UBS Global Asset Management, will become group head of HR from 1 April 2007. He has been with UBS for almost 20 years in various functions across UBS's major businesses. This follows Thomas Hammer's request to step down from his current role as group head of HR to return to his professional roots in executive search. He joined UBS in 2002 as a member of the group managing board and became group head of HR in 2003. UBS say that Mr Hammer transformed this function into one that plays a crucial role in supporting UBS’s strategy to grow as one firm.
