entry as
business consultant
I graduated in business administration from Nürtingen-Geislingen University, specializing in automotive marketing, business psychology, market research and controlling. When I started my career, two things were of particular importance to me: I wanted to work on marketing issues in the automotive or financial services sector, and was eager to take on challenging assignments that would cover a wide range of subjects.
What better place to combine those aspirations than consulting? Thus I joined Consileon in January 2007. In banking, my preferred industry, I focus on pricing issues as well as direct marketing strategies and processes.
My first few months at the company came brimming with the challenges I had hoped for. Thanks to our friendly work climate, and with a little help from my colleagues, it has always been fun to master those difficulties. Soon I was able to oversee a project. At present, I am in charge of an assignment on behalf of a major retail bank.
In the future, I would like to add some automotive projects to my track record. To boost Consileon’s growth, I aspire to win us new accounts in that industry.
