Senior Project Manager at Awin Global driving Intelligent Platform transformation and delivering cross-functional platform initiatives.

Germany
Message

At Awin Global, I own delivery of the Intelligent Platform transformation, aligning Product, Commercial, and Engineering around strategic goals. I restructured the operating model into outcome pillars and horizontal enablers, and lead four prioritised Quick Win initiatives while the target model takes shape.

Previously, at Assemblio, I led SaaS platform and automation initiatives, accelerating CAD-to-instruction generation by 92% and using AI-supported workflows to cut manual editing effort by 40%. Across roles at mobile.de, Scoutbee, Nokia, Accenture, and Falabella Retail, I've delivered platform, integration, and digital transformation work, including a Telefónica call centre automation program that reduced customer wait times by 27%.
