Lead Planner @Exyte

As Lead Planner for Industrial Projects in the Bio Pharma & Life Sciences sector, I directed end-to-end schedule management across complex, high-value projects, achieving a 15% reduction in delays and a 20% increase in efficiency through standardisation and automation. I enabled project teams to deliver competitive schedules and provided critical input to change and risk management, securing €6M in cost recovery through strategic delay analyses. By chairing Lean meetings and aligning cross-functional teams on KPIs and milestones, I strengthened delivery focus and accountability. Leading and developing a team of planners, I fostered a high-performing culture built on collaboration, mentorship, and continuous improvement, ensuring consistent project success and client satisfaction.
