Senior Executive with 18 plus years of experience in international VAT, customs and trade topics. As Partner at PwC Switzerland I am leading the national VAT-, the international VAT-, and the customs and trade team. I am a member of PwC’s International VAT & Customs network and act as Partner in its Sub Service Line — both for multinationals and Swiss subsidiaries of international groups. I am highly enthusiastic about my field, and believe that defining customs and trade playgrounds are the basis and the starting point to reach optimization and automation for any organization. We pride ourselves at offering a comprehensive view of all supply chain aspects and legal framework across countries, considering individual risks and opportunities, resulting in tangible returns for our clients. We are a center of excellence with leading advisers in national and international VAT, customs, trade, and supply chain areas. I am passionate about my subject and enjoy giving lectures on audit and national VAT topics at the Swiss Tax Academy. At the Swiss Fiduciary Chamber and at the Swiss Accountancy Academy, I regularly give speeches on trade and customs related topics. I have co-authored the Swiss VAT manual, and frequently contribute to the PwC customs commentary Custom-ized. I value trusted relationship with both clients and employees, and believe in an enjoyable working environment where success is celebrated. I look forward to exchange knowledge in the area of national and international trade and to share my insights and experience.
