More about the interim manager

The interim manager is an expert in hazardous substance and dangerous goods management, occupational health and safety and environmental protection management (EHS management). As a specialist in EHS compliance in the chemical industry, he is well versed in effectively implementing and monitoring all necessary protective measures in the chemical value chain and adapting them to current challenges.

In his most recent projects as EHS manager at a chemical company, the expert introduced and/or optimized integrated systems for planning, monitoring and optimizing operational processes in the production of more than 26,000 chemical products. This also included extensive initiatives in environmental and approval management, such as the construction of a new chemical production site. The interim manager also advised and trained management and staff on all EHS issues. Other projects from this period include the successful introduction of an EHS software system for e-learning and the creation of work and operating instructions and risk assessments. He also created legal and hazardous substance registers.

The interim manager has been self-employed since 2023. Prior to that, he was EHS manager and EHS manager at chemical companies such as Staub & Co - Silbermann, Linde Gas-Therapeutik and Clariant. The industrial foreman with additional qualifications as a hazardous goods and immission control officer offers his clients comprehensive EHS expertise and very good knowledge of the particularly complex regulatory requirements for the chemical industry. In addition, he understands hazard analyses and risk assessments very well.

The interim manager's activities in EHS management have always been varied, often international and cross-divisional: based on this experience, the EHS expert has a cooperative management style. In addition, he always communicates openly and at eye level - from the production floor to board level.

The interim manager also enjoys teamwork in his private life: as an honorary soccer coach and club board member. To balance things out, he enjoys mountain sports, jogging regularly and cooking.
