ABOUT JAN MG SCHMIDT
I am a strategy and M&A leader with 10+ years of experience advising global industrial and technology companies across EMEA, APAC, and North America. My work centers on building & industrial, electrification, and related software/technology where I help executives define growth strategies, shape investment portfolios, and execute high-impact transformations. I have led 45+ projects since joining Bain, including agrowth strategy for a major building automation OEM strategy that secured triple-digit million dollar board-approved investment, a profit improvement program for an automotive supplier increasing margin by mid single digits, and multiple growth strategies that doubled revenue trajectories. On the M&A side, I have conducted 30+ diligences and value creation plans for corporates and private equity, with deep experience in residential & industrial services and technology. What differentiates me is my ability to operate at the intersection of corporate development and organic growth - from portfolio strategy and acquisition pipelines to pricing and operational excellence. I bring a global perspective from working in Düsseldorf, Melbourne, Tokyo, Boston, and Seattle, and I am passionate about helping industrial leaders capture opportunities in sustainability, digitalization, and smart infrastructure.
