Track Record

Selected roles, public proof, and relevant background for serious conversations.

The goal is not a public document dump. It is to make the relevant evidence visible: decision-level roles, demanding contexts, sector depth, and the business themes that connect them.

A career spanning advisory, executive leadership, and founder-led environments.

Trustfund Managing Partner

Strategic advisory at partner level across growth, market positioning, partnerships, and commercially relevant transformation.

ADAC Financial Services Managing Director

Executive leadership in a trust-critical financial-services environment where commercial development, governance, and partnership relevance had to move together.

Kopplr Co-Founder

Founder-side responsibility for proposition, go-to-market logic, and the early commercial architecture of a new venture.

Wirecard Executive Vice President

International executive exposure across payments, platform logic, strategic alliances, and large-scale ecosystems.

Earlier leadership and consulting roles BBDO, KPMG, and beyond

A foundation in strategic marketing, advisory work, client leadership, and commercially grounded problem-solving.

Recurring Theme

Growth with commercial discipline.

Again and again the work returns to the same question: where should growth come from, and how can it be made credible?

Recurring Theme

Partnerships as leverage.

Large alliances, ecosystem thinking, and partner structures appear repeatedly across advisory and executive roles.

Recurring Theme

Trust-critical execution.

Several environments required decisions to hold up under scrutiny, governance, and operational pressure at the same time.

Academic Education

The academic background adds the formal foundation behind the later work in strategy, leadership, and commercially grounded decision-making.

Credentials

Selected certifications, continuing education, language capabilities, and background materials are available on request for executive search, partnership discussions, and selected advisory conversations.

Executive brief

Detailed CVs, transcripts, and supporting materials belong behind a gated executive brief, not in a public document dump. The public site should show enough proof for orientation, while more sensitive material stays contextual and protected.
