As a Partner at Brandt & Partner, I help automotive companies navigate complex transformations and drive sustainable, global growth. With over 20 years of international leadership, I offer deep expertise in Program and Supply Chain Management, focusing specifically on automotive seating/interiors and passive safety systems.

My career highlights include launching multiple production facilities across Europe, North America, and Asia, managing large-scale supply chain operations, and overseeing multimillion-euro program budgets. I’ve enabled organizations to scale from €450M to €1.5B by implementing robust Program Management standards, introducing KPI-driven processes, and reorganizing teams for enhanced efficiency and customer focus.

My work extends beyond Software-Defined Vehicles (SDV). I collaborate with clients to develop innovative partnership models, streamline operations, and align strategy with execution. By combining a global perspective with a hands-on, results-oriented approach I help businesses turn complexity from a competitive advantage into a collaborative advantage, unlocking long-term performance.

With 30 years of experience at the forefront of the semiconductor and automotive industries, I have a proven track record of defining and building the products of tomorrow. My career journey encompasses hardware, software platforms, and complex systems, seamlessly combining technological expertise with strategic business acumen to deliver innovative solutions that have a lasting impact on the market.

From initial concept to mass production, I have developed solutions for global markets, spanning consumer electronics to safety-critical automotive components. Throughout my career, I have honed a diverse set of functional skills, including global business development, innovation, partnership programs, mergers and acquisitions, product and project lifecycle management and technical marketing.

I specialize in assisting and coaching executives and organizations in transitioning from project-driven cultures to value-added product-driven mindsets. This includes navigating and supporting the cultural and process changes essential for sustained success.

With nearly 20 years in the lighting and semiconductor industries, I’ve worked across startups, mid-sized firms, and global corporations, navigating the complexities of leadership, talent and operational efficiency. I don’t just consult – I dive deep into companies to pinpoint what’s working, what’s not, and what needs to change.

My focus:

Executive Search – finding the right leaders to drive growth.
The best companies aren’t just built on great products – they’re built on great people. I help businesses identify high-impact talent, aligning leadership with strategy, culture, and long-term success.

Enterprise Health & Organisational Efficiency – fixing what’s holding your company back.
Hidden inefficiencies drain time, money, and talent. The Enterprise Health Program uncovers these gaps through data-driven diagnostic, and delivers structured solutions to improve leadership, processes, and team effectiveness.

Where I add value:
I combine deep industry insight with hands-on execution. I’m often described as the “engine” behind transformational initiatives – bringing the right people together, tackling inefficiencies head-on, and helping companies move forward with clarity and confidence.
