I am a thirty-nine years old dad and enthusiast for many different things. I love to conquer new technologies, I enjoy to participate on successful projects but my passion is sustainability. To be a part of finding solutions for the climate change is something payless. Since November ’23 I have the opportunity to do this on a global level for my employer ClimatePartner as Compliance & Corporate Sustainability Manager after I did consulting and sales for the past 1.5 years for packaging clients.
Career
I started my career as Event Manager in the near of Leipzig and organized interesting formats of incentive, fashion shows and parties. On a day off I met someone in the city, she asked me if I can imagine to work in sales for a packaging company. My answer was “how hard can that be?” :). That is thirteen years back and it was not always an easy going of course, but I found my way. I had the opportunity to grow in a very interesting branch from inside sales & customer support to the Head of Sales for one of the leading companies for transport packaging. After a short break in the beginning of 2022, I started my new role as Commercial Sustainability Manager at ClimatePartner and help the packaging industry focussing on more sustainability.
