About

Sales leader with 13+ years scaling B2B SaaS revenue organizations across EMEA, APAC and NAM. I build high-performing teams, define GTM strategy, and consistently deliver growth in complex and competitive markets. My experience spans Product Sustainability & LCA software, risk & supply-chain platforms, and MarTech/PLG environments. I have led organizations of 25+ sales professionals, built teams from scratch, restructured others post-acquisition, and guided multiple companies through expansion, integration and exit events. I operate with a consultative, value-led sales methodology and a strong foundation in sales operations, Salesforce CRM, and performance management. I work daily in German, English and Spanish, and thrive in international, cross-cultural leadership settings. I’m also the author of SaaScalation and a mentor/advisor to SaaS companies seeking scalable revenue engines, repeatable sales motions, and market expansion.
