Bringing Structure to Growth – Operations & Logistics Expert
I help scaling companies and SMEs build operational processes that enable sustainable growth. My focus is on stabilizing workflows and turning "growth chaos" into scalable systems.
Key areas of expertise:
- Warehouse Relocation: Managing risk-free site transitions (Experience: 10,000 sqm warehouse move during ongoing operations)
- Scaling Operations: Designing robust workflows that perform from early-stage to high-volume B2B/Retail environments
- Process Excellence: Enhancing picking performance, packing efficiency, and carrier networks
- Data Transparency: Implementing KPI frameworks to ensure decisions are based on data
I always pursue a very pragmatic approach. Whether it's about increasing picking efficiency or selecting the right logistics partners – I combine operational foresight with a can-do attitude.

Bringt Struktur ins Wachstum – Operations & Logistik Experte
Ich unterstütze wachsende Unternehmen und den Mittelstand dabei, operative Prozesse so aufzubauen, dass sie echtes Wachstum ermöglichen statt es zu bremsen. Mein Fokus liegt darauf, „Wachstums-Chaos“ in skalierbare Systeme zu verwandeln.
Wichtigste Erfahrungen:
- Warehouse-Relocation: Risikofreies Management von Standortwechseln (Referenz: 10.000 qm Lagerumzug im laufenden Betrieb)
- Skalierung von Operations: Aufbau stabiler Workflows, die von der frühen Phase bis zum hohen Volumen (B2B/Retail) funktionieren
- Prozess-Exzellenz: Optimierung von Pick-Leistung, Pack-Schemen und Carrier-Netzwerken zur Effizienzsteigerung
- Datentransparenz: Implementierung von KPI-Systemen, damit Entscheidungen auf Fakten statt Bauchgefühl basieren
Ich verfolge dabei immer einen sehr pragmatischen Ansatz. Ob es um die Steigerung der Pick-Effizienz oder die Auswahl der richtigen Speditionspartner geht – ich verbinde operative Weitsicht mit Macher-Mentalität.
