About Evgeny

I support companies in successfully bringing complex projects to fruition – especially when structures are lacking, deadlines are tight, or regulatory requirements are involved. As an experienced project manager, management consultant, and PMO lead, I bring order to chaos, strengthen teams, and ensure measurable results.
My focus is on transformation projects, process optimization, and the establishment of effective project management structures – particularly in regulated industries such as banking, automotive, and real estate.

Most recently, I was part of a task force at Deutsche Bank AG to address regulatory findings, led the PMO for the company-wide stability initiative at Reanovo Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG, and was responsible as Project Lead for standardization & certification at Catena-X Automotive Network e.V.

What sets me apart: a rare combination of strategic clarity, operational execution strength, and the ability to bring people with different interests to the table. I work solution-oriented, reliably, and always with the big picture in mind.
