Dynamic CEO/COO/CFO/CCO/Senior Executive/Board member with hands-on mentality and a situational-participative leadership style. Strategic and innovative thinker with broad-based experience in Corporate Management, Program/Project Management, Manufacturing/Operations, Finance and Sales. Proven track record in company mergers, transformations/transitions and turnarounds.Due to my dual background in Engineering and Finance, I have been able to perform roles ranging from Structural Engineer to CFO, from Management Consultant to CCO and from Aviation Finance Specialist to CEO and COO. On top I have held non-executive director positions. I would characterise myself as a “Management-Decathlete”.My “hands-on” experience enables me to support, lead and drive strategic, financial, and operational change. Although most of my career I have worked in Aviation, Aerospace and Manufacturing I feel comfortable adding value to other industries as well. I am passionate about analysing and helping businesses successfully address their most complex and critical challenges and implementing solutions. Whereas as a Management Consultant I was mainly involved in business transformations, my last assignments were full restructuring projects which required a more holistic approach. My result-driven mentality has led to many substantial improvements. This was mainly at medium-sized companies (100-500 employees) with a technical, complex, international, and business-to-business setting. However, I am confident that I can contribute to the success of larger corporations as well.
