Professional Expertise

Experienced Professional in Organizational Development, Leadership, Procurement, and Contract Management.


I offer tailored team and leadership development based on DISC profiling, as well as interim leadership and support during complex organizational transformations.


With extensive experience, I have built a procurement organization for a leading international energy company, overseeing a team of nearly 50 employees and 5 middle managers. I was responsible a total procurement volume, exceeding €6.5 billion. I have negotiated and managed contracts worth billions within the green energy transition, bringing deep expertise in strategic procurement and contract management.


As a corporate lawyer in two major international companies, I specialized in contract drafting and negotiation, corporate law, insurance, employment law, GDPR, and other critical legal areas. This unique combination of commercial and legal expertise enables me to provide comprehensive and effective solutions.


I am committed to being a trusted partner to my clients by delivering high-quality services based on solid experience and practical understanding. My mission is to create sustainable solutions that optimize processes, enhance organizational competitiveness, and drive innovation.


I believe in the value of strategies tailored to each organization’s unique needs. Through close collaboration and a deep understanding of your business, I ensure solutions that deliver measurable results and long-term value.
