Beschreibung

I help organizations turn Procurement and Supply Chain into engines of value creation.

With 30+ years of international leadership, I design and deliver end-to-end Source-to-Pay (S2P) transformations that combine strategy, process, technology, and adoption.

What I Do

Operating Model Design that aligns governance, roles, and KPIs with business goals
Source-to-Pay (S2P) Excellence across strategy, sourcing, contracts, purchasing, invoicing, and analytics
Digital Procurement Enablement with i.e. SAP S/4HANA, SAP Ariba, Coupa, Ivalua, and any other valid player - focused on usability, data quality, and real-world adoption rather than tool ideology
Change & Leadership Programs that drive acceptance, capability building, and measurable results
Stabilization and Turnaround of broken P2P landscapes to restore flow, transparency, and control

Where I Have Delivered

Aviation & MRO - Swiss International Air Lines

Retail & Consumer Goods - Migros and Selecta

Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare - Roche and GE Healthcare

Industrial & IT Services - multi-entity, cross-functional transformations

How I Work

Pragmatic and hands-on, executive-level and delivery-focused.

I bridge boardroom intent with real-world execution, translating strategy into processes, systems, and behaviors that last.

My approach balances speed and rigor, using clear KPIs, stakeholder engagement, and relentless follow-through.

Typical Outcomes

Reduced total cost and working capital
Improved availability and user adoption
Cleaner data and sustained performance

Typical Mandates

Interim Head of Procurement | Procurement Excellence Lead | Program Director S2P | Operating Model Advisor | Due Diligence & Value Creation Projects
