What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and allows me to lead teams in driving digital transformation and sustainable growth.

I am a seasoned professional with a strong focus on building effective teams and developing sustainable sales strategies. As the General Manager at elKomSolutions GmbH, I have successfully driven companies forward by creating a clear brand presence and optimizing business processes. My extensive experience with SaaS models and cloud computing has been instrumental in achieving strategic business management and sustainable growth.

Throughout my career, I have held various leadership roles, including Head of Sales at TWL-KOM GmbH and Director of Sales & Marketing at premiso AG. I have a proven track record in new customer acquisition and existing customer care, working with notable clients such as BOSCH and DOW Chemical. My motto, inspired by Michael Jordan, reflects my proactive approach: I am someone who makes things happen.

With a strong educational background, including an MBA in Management Excellence from Steinbeis University, I am committed to continuous learning and development. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills in business development, digital transformation, and strategic marketing to drive success.
