Über mich
I’m an accomplished financial strategist and business leader with 25+ years of hands-on experience deploying mission critical financial solutions for Opel/Vauxhall Europe. I have ownership of €2BN in annual budgets, €20BN in annual sales, and my expertise covers aggressive cost reduction initiatives, market needs/competitor analysis, creative marketing/pricing strategies, and core process reengineering. I’m a talented, bi-lingual (English and Polish) culturally sensitive team builder with deep experience leading cross-functional teams through change and challenge to profitable growth. I have spearheaded numerous successful projects for Opel/Vauxhall, including the implementation of a new margin consolidation and reporting system, and the ongoing price optimisation of Opel/Vauxhall models across all key European markets. On a personal level, I’m a very proficient skier and footballer, and I enjoy staying physically fit.
