Despre
Operating in the food and beverage sector is a challenge and I always look forward to it. Through my career, I reduced costs of over 10.000 K Euros, while keeping the employee's engagement levels at over 80% from total FTE (as per relevant surveys). I have done this by developing a result driven, human centered management style that has been proven to work in over 17 different factories on 2 different continents (Europe and Africa).
When joining a new team, my mission is to be 100% reliable, easy to work with and drive long term results for the entire organizations.
