At LIMAGRAIN POLSKA, I built and developed a plant breeding research station from the ground up, establishing its infrastructure, operational processes and team. I managed operational and CAPEX budgets, and coordinated field experiments across Poland and the Czech Republic.

I also developed a management reporting process for breeding trials that became a recognised benchmark within the wider Field Seeds organisation. My work has included procurement for R&D operations, SAP-supported business processes and participation in Limagrain management committees.
