Christian primarily advises companies in the automotive and industrial goods sectors. He began his consulting career in 2007 and spent several years in the United States, working for Roland Berger's Chicago office. His functional expertise in operations focuses on product development and R&D, production, and large-scale operational efficiency and transformation programs. He supports clients in areas such as preparing R&D departments for future trends, redesigning processes, developing manufacturing footprint strategies, and driving organizational transformations.
Christian’s sustainability focus spans the entire operations value chain, from implementing circular economy strategies in new product development to executing decarbonization programs along Scope 1/2/3, as well as developing water strategies.
Additionally, he addresses sustainability challenges on the supply side by collaborating closely with procurement departments and suppliers. Christian also advises clients on corporate ESG (sustainability) strategies.
Excellent and sustainable operations are the backbone of business success. I am passionate about developing pragmatic solutions, particularly in the areas of operational efficiency, R&D, production, decarbonization, circular economy, and water strategies.
