More about the interim manager
The interim manager is an internationally experienced expert for digital business models in the media environment - from business development, strategic partnerships and digital distribution structures to the acquisition and adaptation of internationally established digital business models. With his extensive knowledge and experience in the digital media industry (including Bertelsmann, Sony Music, Sony Pictures), he has repeatedly helped to generate sustainable growth and added value for his clients.
In one of his most recent mandates, the interim manager negotiated the acquisition of license rights in the media sector for a listed global telecommunications company. Another project example is the conclusion of strategic distribution partnerships for a book streaming provider. He also prepared a comprehensive analysis for the market entry in Germany for a leading video streaming provider.
Pragmatic business developer with international management experience
The interim manager (self-employed since 2018) comes from the international media industry. He has held management positions in globally operating music labels and film studios and played a key role in shaping the digitalization of these companies. As Country Manager of an internationally expanding video streaming provider, he was responsible for the development and expansion of the B2C business in Germany. He set up sales structures for a B2B video streaming platform (start-up) and successfully generated initial sales. As Managing Director Germany of a global video ad tech platform, he built up the German business from scratch and brought it to profitability within twelve months.
With the help of his broad experience in a wide variety of environments (corporate, mature start-up, early stage), he is able to create sustainable success with the best and most appropriate thinking and approaches in each case. This means, on the one hand, filtering out the essential key problems and, on the other hand, solving these problems with a sharp focus, creatively and hands-on. With communication that speaks plain language, is factual, clear and structured, but also always approachable - and brings the people involved on board with their own characteristics.
His passion is Argentine tango. A dance characterized by a unique combination of technique, creativity, connection, improvisation and intuitive leading and following - in other words, qualities that are required in the development and implementation of innovative business models.
