Regional business leader driving operational excellence and enterprise skilling across EMEA.
What I'm looking for
I’m an EMEA Regional Business Manager with nearly 10 years of progressive experience across Microsoft, bringing structure, analytical thinking, and continuous improvement to complex regional programs. I partner with leadership to turn strategy into consistent execution across diverse teams and workstreams.
Trusted as an operational partner supporting leadership across eight EMEA regions, I coordinate executive communications, planning cycles, and cross-functional initiatives. I monitor regional training and delivery budgets exceeding €500K, validating forecasts and supporting financial governance and executive-ready planning.
I build decision-ready reporting—executive reporting, business reviews, operational analyses, analytical reports, and executive dashboards that translate operational and financial data into actionable insights. I also designed and delivered a Microsoft Teams adoption campaign attended by 600+ participants, creating a structured learning journey from beginner to advanced users.
Beyond operations, I’ve led enterprise skilling programs and customer enablement: developing customer skilling plans, executive presentations, communication strategies, and partner enablement initiatives. Earlier in my career, I managed Modern Work and partner channel marketing for Microsoft, including Voice of the Customer and partner readiness programs.
