About Jens
I turn AI from scattered pilots into a governed, scalable capability that delivers measurable business value. If you need faster time-to-value, clear ownership, and reduced risk exposure, I bring a pragmatic, process-first approach to make AI operational in the real business—not just in slide decks.
What sets me apart is that I combine enterprise process transformation with AI governance and compliance (incl. ISO/IEC 42001). That means we don’t stop at policies: we embed governance into day-to-day workflows, define decision rights and cadence (RACI/committees/PDCA), and build the evidence base needed for audit readiness—while ensuring the AI portfolio is aligned to strategic priorities and ROI.
Typical projects and deliverables I lead include:
- AIMS Readiness / Maturity Sprint: AI inventory + scope, governance model, gap analysis, and a 90-day implementation roadmap
- ISO/IEC 42001-aligned AIMS Implementation: policies, controls, lifecycle management, risk & impact assessment templates, vendor oversight, documentation and evidence structure
- Operating Model & Adoption Enablement: roles, processes, training/coaching, change management, and integration into existing management systems
- Performance & Management Reporting: KPI/KRI framework, management review packs, and continuous improvement mechanisms
In short: I help leadership teams implement an AI Management System that makes AI valuable, trustworthy, and controllable—so you can scale with confidence.
Many of these projects require strong personal involvement and on-site commitment to align stakeholders, accelerate decisions, and drive adoption. In terms of delivery location, I’m fully flexible and can work wherever the engagement requires.

Experience
- GREENKEA LIMITEDFOUNDER & MANAGING CONSULTANTCONSULTING AND AUDITSApril 2025 - Today (1 year and 4 months)I am building a business consulting firm focused on the process-oriented implementation and operationalization of AI Management Systems (AIMS)—turning AI from isolated pilots into a governed, scalable, and value-generating capability. My work spans business development, creation of a repeatable delivery model, development of reusable assets (methods, templates, playbooks), and go-to-market execution across marketing and sales.In the market, I offer end-to-end AIMS delivery across six core capabilities:
- AI Strategy & Roadmap: Defining AI ambition, target operating model, prioritized use-case portfolio, and a pragmatic roadmap from experimentation to enterprise adoption.
- Intelligent Process Transformation: Redesigning and automating business processes so AI is embedded in workflows and delivers measurable productivity and quality gains.
- AI Management System Implementation: Designing and implementing the AIMS framework, including roles, governance structures, policies, controls, documentation, and integration into the organization’s management system landscape.
- AI Governance & Compliance (ISO/IEC 42001): Establishing compliant governance aligned with ISO/IEC 42001 (and regulatory expectations such as the EU AI Act), including risk, impact, accountability, and audit readiness.
- AI Management System Operations: Operationalizing the AIMS with clear cadences, lifecycle controls, change management, third-party oversight, and continuous improvement mechanisms.
- AIMS Performance Evaluation: Implementing KPI/KRI-based monitoring, management reporting, and evidence-driven performance reviews to ensure AI delivers ROI while remaining trustworthy and controlled.
In short: I help organizations build, run, and continuously improve an AI Management System that enables trusted AI at scale—with governance, compliance, and value realization designed into the operating model from day one. - NTT DATA DEUTSCHLAND SE,HEAD OF BPM & AUTOMATIONSeptember 2010 - February 2025 (14 years and 5 months)Hamburg, Germany• • Senior consulting leadership for BPM and automation engagements, advising clients across industries on governance, methods, and implementation approaches.
