Description

Senior PMO & Project Manager | IT Transformation | Governance | Complex Rollouts | Enterprise

I support companies in the successful implementation of complex IT programs, transformations, and rollouts – especially in situations where projects need to be structured, stabilized, or realigned.

With over 20 years of experience in project and program management, I primarily work in enterprise environments, matrix organizations, and in regulated or security-sensitive contexts.

My clients particularly value my ability to quickly bring transparency to complex situations, establish clear control structures, and safely guide projects through critical phases such as transformation, rollout, or go-live.

I combine strategic PMO and governance understanding with operational execution strength – from analysis and structural setup to sustainable implementation in daily project work.

Typical Focus Areas:

• Program and Project Management

• PMO Setup and Scaling

• Organizational and Process Optimization

• Governance and Reporting Structures

• Management and Steering Communication
