Interim leadership, strengthened by smart automation

From strategy to execution: I help small and mid-sized businesses get a grip on their direction, operations, finances and data. I bring structure to processes, make results visible and automate what can be done faster and smarter.

Expertise

Where I make the difference

Strategy & direction

Setting a clear direction and translating it into concrete goals, priorities and a plan the organisation actually executes.

Operations & process design

Clear workflows, clear responsibilities and operations that run predictably. I bring structure where things now rely on individuals and loose lists.

Finance & Order-to-Cash

From order to payment without friction: faster invoicing, fewer outstanding receivables and healthier cash flow. I streamline and automate the entire Order-to-Cash process.

Data & steering

Financial analyses and clear dashboards that show where money is made and lost, so management steers on facts instead of gut feeling.

Leadership through change

Temporarily at the helm or as the right hand of management during growth, transition or a leadership gap. I take ownership and hand over a stronger organisation.

Automatisering & efficiency

In every assignment I look for manual work, duplicate work and waiting time. With smart automation and AI integrations, teams free up time for the work that really matters.

Approach

From first conversation to lasting results

Introduction

In a no-obligation conversation we discuss the situation and the challenge.

Analysis

In the first weeks I map out the organisation, processes and bottlenecks.

Execution

I steer on concrete goals, improve processes and automate where it pays off.

Handover

I embed the results and hand over to a permanent successor or the team.

Reflection & adjustment

After completion we look back on the results together. If adjustments are needed, we agree on a targeted next step.

How automation can improve sustainable operations

Cups as wallets? By embedding RFID chips in reusable cups, the cups themselves become the means of identification at self-service tap systems. I researched how RFID cups combined with automated drink dispensers increase operational efficiency at events and reduce the plastic footprint.
