More about the interim manager
The doctor of business administration has been working independently as an interim manager and consultant for the transformation of companies as well as an M&A consultant since 2010. During this time, he has successfully completed more than 30 interim mandates and consulting projects for well-known national and international clients such as DuPont, Lanxess, Rheinmetall, Cargotec, Pfeiffer Vacuum and Zalando, as well as for many hidden champions in the SME sector. Prior to this, he gained extensive experience as a consultant in the field of reorganization and restructuring as well as in the management of a medium-sized family business. The expert is looking for interim and consulting mandates in the areas of transformation, M&A and post-merger integration, also with restructuring elements.
In one of his most recent mandates, the interim manager advised a medium-sized medical technology company through a comprehensive restructuring on behalf of a PE investor. Prior to that, as project manager at a German DAX company, he played a key role in the successful transformation of the Rheinmetall Electronic Division from a manufacturer to a series producer. in 2021, he managed the economic transformation of a site for a listed German plant manufacturer with the aim of releasing an investment volume of 50 million euros.
Transformation: empowering people and organizations to tackle complex challenges
The interim manager has a strong entrepreneurial mindset, analyses comprehensively and quickly creates pragmatic solutions. His particular strengths also include preparing the ground for the next steps. As an entrepreneur, he knows that only a strong team can achieve real results. That is why he attaches particular importance to turning employees into active designers in his projects. To this end, he uses his strong ability to empower people in organizations for new tasks and coach them to the next level of performance. In doing so, it is more important to him to empower the organization and the people permanently associated with it and to leave them behind as visible brands of their own. For him, a project is successful above all when companies and teams are able to build on their success independently after the mandate.
The interim manager is the right person when it comes to preparing organizations that are not sufficiently mature for future challenges. Rapidly changing requirements are what make this job so appealing. He is able to ensure communication with very different stakeholders and in multinational contexts at eye level. Experience on five continents and fluency in three languages (English, French and Spanish) predestine the interim manager for international projects
