SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ATR International, a leading staffing and consulting firm specializing in IT and engineering, has announced the promotion of Andrea Brenholz to the role of CEO/President. In her new role, Andrea will oversee ATR operations as a whole while ensuring the alignment of business goals with departmental activities. As a top female executive and minority business leader, she is also the face of ATR's diverse organization.
"It's an honor to be named the head of such a respected industry leading organization," said Andrea Brenholz, CEO/President of ATR International. "I have prepared for this moment my entire life, and look forward to leading ATR into the next generation of staffing through dedication and innovation."
Most recently, Brenholz held the role of Chief Strategy Officer and was increasingly leading ATR's business initiatives.

In addition to her focus on internal business strategy, Andrea is also a strong voice for both female executives and minority business leaders.
