Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I support companies in quickly identifying operational problems based on key figures and translating them into concrete, actionable measures.

My focus is on the combination of KPI analysis, operational control, and implementation – especially in established structures where processes, teams, and performance are no longer functioning effectively.

I don't just work analytically; I bring clarity to contexts, prioritize areas of action, and support the implementation of measures in day-to-day operations – also in conjunction with existing team and management structures.

Additionally, I bring experience in the commercial structuring of project-related topics, particularly in the consolidation, preparation, and tracking of offers, invoices, and administrative processes in more complex project contexts.

Typical areas of application include:

– KPI-based management and stabilization of operational units

– Structuring of back-office and commercial processes

– Derivation and implementation of concrete measures from performance deviations

– Support of change and transformation processes in existing organizations

I quickly familiarize myself with existing structures, recognize interrelationships, and pragmatically implement topics without unnecessary coordination.

Collaboration is consciously lean and results-oriented – remote, flexible, and with a clear focus on fast, sustainable results.
