Multilingual event tech business developer specializing in cashless payments.
What I'm looking for
I am a multilingual business development and project manager focused on event technology, cashless payments, and SaaS integrations for clubs, festivals and conferences. I combine frontline event operations experience with product-focused collaboration to deliver reliable, scalable solutions.
Over the last decade I’ve led full-cycle event operations—from ticketing, accreditation and access control to CRM, invoicing and cashless payment rollouts—working with major festivals and venues across Europe. I negotiate vendor contracts, manage budgets and maintain stakeholder alignment to meet milestones on time and on budget.
My recent roles include client success and hardware fleet management where I improved fleet efficiency, configured software for cashless transactions, and provided technical and operational oversight for large-scale events. I create product experience reports and work closely with engineering teams to drive product improvements.
I’m passionate about optimizing processes, training teams, and implementing scalable systems that reduce costs, increase visibility, and improve on-site execution. If you need someone who bridges product, operations and client delivery in live events, I deliver measurable results.
