Über mich

Thank you for visiting my profile.

I provide CORPORATE M&A as a Service:

MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS:
I'm your external Project Manager for buy-side and sell-side M&A projects in Germany and abroad with focus on managing stakeholders from subsidiary level to the C-suite and central corporate functions.

I cover the whole M&A process from first contact with the selling entity to closing, including comprehensive internal approval processes, financial analysis and valuation, due diligence management and hands-on negotiations where most value is at stake.

Every touchpoint with the opposing party is an opportunity to lose or gain value and subtleties matter!

POST-MERGER INTEGRATION:
I also help you integrate your acquired companies seamlessly and based on the individual situation at hand (no cookie-cutter approach).

VALUE CREATION and EXIT READINESS:
I help you to improve the performance of your organisation or prepare your company for sale by identifying weaknesses and proposing/managing changes that could have a negative impact on your exit price and terms during a sale process; these are typically long-term projects - depending on the respective area of improvement, I either propose changes, manage the respective project with support from your organisation, or work together with other external experts that may be required for certain functional areas.

Drop me a line, if you need information on any of the above.

Best regards,

S.

PS (for German visitors): Sie können mir gerne auch auf Deutsch schreiben.
