In my more than 20-year career as a procurement and supply chain professional for leading global companies such as LINDE PLC and ZF GROUP, I have mastered multiple critical challenges that have contributed significantly to the continuous increase of the company's success.
Sensitive price negotiations with an important supplier, the planning and implementation of a strategic digitalization project or the design and subsequent transformation of the organization after a merger – to name just a few examples.
Since I started my own business in August 2023, I have been supporting renowned clients such as BOSTON CONSULTING GROUP and EGON ZEHNDER as well as companies, investors, institutions and individuals in becoming even more successful with my expertise.
