I am an international Chief Human Resources Officer with over 20 years of senior HR and executive leadership experience across the United States and Germany, partnering with CEOs and executive teams to align people strategy with business performance. My background spans manufacturing, workforce solutions, and services, where I have led enterprise-wide HR strategies in complex, regulated environments. I bring deep expertise in organizational transformation, labor relations, works councils, and unionized workforces, as well as in building scalable HR organizations to support growth, restructuring, and digitalization. As CHRO at DG timework GmbH, I was responsible for the full HR agenda and governance, including talent strategy, leadership development, compensation & benefits, compliance (AÜG, DSGVO), and HR controlling. I built and led high-performing HR teams and implemented modern HR systems to enable data-driven decision-making. I supported the organization through periods of growth, workforce fluctuation, and strategic realignment, scaling HR structures for workforces ranging from 200 to over 1,000 employees. Previously, I spent more than a decade in senior HR leadership roles in the United States, including at Titan Tire Corporation International, operating in a large-scale, unionized manufacturing environment. There, I led labor relations, compensation and benefits, and workforce restructuring, building long-term credibility with both leadership and employee representatives. I am recognized as a trusted executive partner with a pragmatic, business-oriented approach, combining strong governance and compliance with a clear focus on leadership capability, culture, and sustainable performance. 📍 Based in Munich | Open to CHRO / Executive HR Leadership roles in DACH, Europe, or international organizations
