Where the delivery spine is coming from.
The backbone I install at scale-ups comes straight from enterprise programs that ran under far harder constraints: more countries, more stakeholders, bigger budgets, and regulated environments.
What each one delivered.
European retail group
Program manager on an AI marketing platform, €3.3M in year 1 with 3 expansion stages expected, each at the same annual budget or higher, taking it from PoC toward governed production. Brand-compliant content generation inside real guardrails, with quality gates and 1 named owner per output type. I run the operating cadence across marketing, tech, and AI, and own the delivery plan from roadmap to sprint.
European energy utility
I joined a stalling €30M enterprise program as PMO cover, then took the lead in a critical phase. I rebuilt the plan, consolidated cross-country replanning, and stabilized execution through clearer ownership, reporting standards, and escalation paths. Escalations and overdue actions came down; decisions started landing again.
Global pharma company
Transformation Lead on a €68M S/4HANA program under GxP regulation, 800 to 1,400 people across 7 business functions. I set up the program spine, governance, decision rights, cadence, from the roadmap down to the team backlog. It scaled without governance breaking, and go-live readiness held at team level.
Global consumer-goods brand
Project portfolio manager on €45M of global SAP and data harmonization across 40+ countries. One rollout playbook, applied the same way each time. Cycle time per country fell from 12 weeks to 4, data completeness rose from 30% to 78%, and 20 rollouts shipped.
