At Sophos Technology GmbH, I had the opportunity to lead and shape the sales team for MSP and CSP in Central Europe as Manager Channel Sales.My previous position as Senior Channel Account Executive at Sophos enabled me to play a key role in building the service provider channel and partnership development. I laid my foundations as Channel Account Manager MSP at ESET Deutschland GmbH, where I successfully organised a service provider channel. My professional career began as Business Development Manager at ADN Distribution GmbH, where I built secure partnerships in the IT services sector. I was also able to expand my experience as a franchise consultant at Spinnrad GmbH.With a degree in state-certified business administration and extensive further training, I have not only acquired in-depth expertise, but also developed versatile skills in business development, channel management and IT community building. My many years of experience and wide-ranging expertise make me a key figure in the IT industry.
