Back to original languageAbout Oliver
I am an experienced communications strategist with many years of expertise in corporate communications, digital brand management, and journalism. My career includes positions at global companies such as Uber (Comms Lead Mobility) and the media group Axel Springer SE, where I was significantly responsible for the strategic positioning of executives, the development of cross-media communication strategies, and the successful implementation of major projects and partnerships (e.g., with the Berlinale or Uber Arena).
Through my previous work as a TV journalist for broadcasters like RTL and ProSieben, as well as an online editor, I bring a unique perspective to communication.
My in-depth expertise extends across Corporate & Consumer as well as Lifestyle Communications, Crisis and Litigation PR, C-Level Branding, and the development and implementation of effective social media strategies.
