I am a value creation-oriented Group CEO with 15+ years of experience building, integrating and scaling multi-entity platforms in PE-backed and mid-market environments.My focus lies in EBITDA expansion, cash discipline and structural scalability — turning fragmented organizations into integrated, performance-driven platforms. I operate at the intersection of strategy, performance-driven execution and commercial orchestration.As CEO and Managing Director of LIGANOVA Group (multi-entity international platform), I led buy-and-build integration, strengthened revenue quality, introduced group-wide KPI transparency and established shared service structures to enhance margin performance and organizational scalability.My mandate centered on integration, performance stabilization and long-term platform positioning.In addition, I led the acquisition and active ownership of Code Gaia, a SaaS ESG platform, expanding my expertise in recurring revenue models, platform economics and digital value creation. I increasingly integrate AI-enabled operating models to improve efficiency, decision transparency and cross-entity scalability.Previously, as Division Director Service at Hella Gutmann Group, I managed a global service organization across 30+ markets, building scalable structures and driving operational consistency in complex international setups.I combine board-level strategic clarity with hands-on operational execution.My strength lies in aligning leadership teams, integrating diverse entities and translating strategy into measurable EBITDA impact, revenue resilience and scalable platform performance.Particularly interested in:– PE-backed platform scaling– Portfolio CEO / Operating Partner mandates– Mid-market transformation with AI-enabled operating leverage
