Description

(English version s. below)

I take on mandates as Interim Head of CS or Fractional CS Lead - project-based or on retainer. Typical use cases: Building or realigning CS organizations, onboarding structures, churn detection and reduction, cross- and upsell promotion, as well as tool implementation and optimization.

Current focus: AI-powered Customer Success. I develop automated, personalized customer engagement through cross-platform workflows (HubSpot, Jira, Email etc.) and agentic AI — based on customer signals detected by AI and translated into concrete, personalized actions. CS teams can thus both address churn risks early and activate expansion potential — even in the low-ARR segment.

(German version s. below / Deutsche Version s.u.)

I’m a strategic Customer Success leader and consultant with 15+ years of experience helping SaaS companies achieve measurable growth.
I’ve led international, customer-facing teams across all segments—driving a growth mindset, cross-functional collaboration, and scalable, AI-powered processes.

My structured approach consistently increases Net Revenue Retention (NRR), while inspiring teams to deliver customer experiences that fuel retention and long-term success.

Lately I’ve focused on automation and AI-driven Customer Success. I design personalised, automated customer engagement using platform-based workflows (Planhat) or agentic AI — helping SaaS teams scale efficient, human-centred communication even for low-MRR customer segments.

Mein strukturierter Ansatz steigert kontinuierlich die Net Revenue Retention (NRR) und inspiriert Teams dazu, Kundenerlebnisse zu schaffen, die Retention und langfristigen Erfolg fördern.
