A Team of Strong Individuals

Why ITMC?

After 8 years in the consulting industry, I moved on to Deutsche Post, GBS IT as Program Manager Finance. This was supposed to be the end of my career as a management consultant. But after 1.5 years, Jörg asked me if I would support him building up a new team within Inhouse Consulting. He got me convinced quickly, as the tasks here are exiting and there are plenty of possibilities to get to know Deutsche Post.

At ITMC

As the first employee of ITMC, the first target was building up the practice and creating basic structures. Yet at the same time, we had to think about revenue, as profit is as important for a start-up, as it is for other companies. Balancing these two targets was difficult, yet successful.

Beyond Work

In the consulting industry, it is not easy to have regular hobbies during the week. Yet, because of that I find it important to have personal freedom beside work. I can relax perfectly while cooking for my family or friends on weekends.

Why ITMC?

Having finished my studies in Information Engineering and Management, I aimed for a career at the interface of business and IT. ITMC turned out to be the ideal employer for realizing this: Advising managers of IT organizations in business decisions. With ITMC as a small but select team with motivated and likeable people being embedded in a globally acting enterprise I have the perfect combination of a familiar home base in Bonn and multiple exciting projects in various business divisions and locations around the world.

At ITMC

My first week at ITMC did not have anything to do with IT or consulting. During an all-embracing introduction into DPWN I not only gained insight  into a mail and a parcel center, but even got the chance to try myself out as a mailman for a day! After a few exciting weeks in one of the DPWN data centers in Prague I continued with a project in the Mail division in Bonn.The fact that my ITMC colleagues and I are not regarded as “external” consultants by the client department, but rather as trustful members in their team, makes my daily work special.

Beyond Work

In my spare time I like to be outside and discover near and far away places  - be it on skis, by bike, with inline skates or hiking boots.Or I just relax with a thrilling book in the late afternoon sun on my balcony over the rooftops of Bonn…
