With over 20 years of experience in global operations and supply chain management, I help companies build resilient, scalable, and customer-centric operations — across sport, outdoor apparel, fashion and beyond. I've led cross-functional teams of up to 60 people across Europe and North America, driving end-to-end supply chain performance in fast-paced, international environments. My work spans the full operations spectrum: demand planning and S&OP, 3PL management, omnichannel fulfillment, inventory optimization, and large-scale transformation programs. Key highlights from my career: Built and scaled operations functions at: Triumph International (underwear / apparel), Icebreaker Merino (outdoor apparel), Under Armour (sportswear – footwear and apparel), AlphaTauri (fashion) and RedBull (sportswear and merchandising) Developed and rolled out award-winning vertically integrated hybrid wholesale and retail business models that boosted sales and increased retail footprints. Scaled e-commerce fulfillment operations to handle peak demand reliably — reducing order-to-delivery lead times, improving SLA compliance, and delivering a consistently strong customer experience during high-volume periods. Drove service levels and delivery performance with omnichannel key accounts by improving supply planning, enhancing distribution processes and implementing value-added services. Led S&OP processes bridging commercial, sourcing, and logistics functions — translating business strategy into operational execution. Streamlined supplier portfolios and procurement processes by introducing AI-based demand forecasting and automated workflow solutions — reducing manual effort, improving accuracy, and enabling faster, data-driven sourcing decisions. Managed complex 3PL partnerships and logistics networks across multiple markets. I bring a strategic, KPI-focused mindset with hands-on execution strength — equally comfortable in the boardroom and on the warehouse floor. Currently open to senior operations and supply chain leadership roles where transformation, structure, and performance are on the agenda. Based in Munich | Open to international scope
