IT Project Manager specializing in project financial controlling, cloud migrations, and workflow optimization for global teams.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven IT Project Manager with 7+ years of experience leading complex IT projects and digital transformations for international clients, including Regeneron Pharmaceuticals and Klarna. I focus on delivering projects on time and within budget while working with distributed remote teams across multiple time zones.
I specialize in project financial controlling—budgeting, cost tracking, forecasting, and profitability analysis—alongside end-to-end ownership of timelines, budgets, scope, and change requests. I also design and optimize workflows and processes to improve efficiency for remote stakeholders.
Across my roles, I manage risks and issues, maintain clear communication with international stakeholders, and run post-project reviews to implement improvements for future delivery. I bring structured practices from Agile & Scrum and a continuous-improvement mindset supported by Six Sigma.
