Berlin, Berlin, Germany
I am an international finance leader with 20+ years of experience across scale-ups, corporates and investment banking, currently serving as CFO and Managing Director / Geschäftsführer at Helpling, a leading online marketplace across Asia and Europe. Helpling’s international footprint includes Singapore as its largest market, adding valuable exposure to high-growth, multi-country operating environments. At Helpling, I lead the global finance agenda across a multi-market digital marketplace. My focus is on value creation and on building the finance backbone for international scale-ups through investor-grade performance management, KPI steering, disciplined capital allocation and cash-focused growth. I work closely with the Founder & CEO, Board and key stakeholders to translate growth ambitions into measurable performance and support strategic decision-making across a multi-market business. My background spans Capital Markets (IPO & Fundraising), Corporate Finance (M&A), FP&A, valuation and finance transformation, and I have a strong interest in scalable international business models, including digital platforms, marketplaces, fintech and AI-enabled business models, where finance can be a true lever for growth, efficiency and long-term value creation. I am passionate about building high-performing teams with a shared purpose and a culture of passion, pride and performance. I enjoy operating at the intersection of strategy and execution - helping organizations improve performance through stronger financial discipline, clearer priorities and scalable processes. I bring international work experience across Asia (Hong Kong), EMEA (London) and the US (New York).
