Lead industrial footprint strategy by optimizing manufacturing networks, capacity, plant allocation, make-or-buy decisions, and asset utilization to drive growth, operational excellence, cost competitiveness, and supply chain resilience across production and aftermarket operations

In my role at Eissmann Automotive North America, I led operations across four manufacturing plants, ensuring strategic direction and financial stability during a challenging insolvency period. My efforts were pivotal in preparing the company for a successful M&A process, culminating in the sale to new private equity ownership. This experience honed my leadership skills and deepened my understanding of operational management within a financially critical business environment.
