__ INTERIM MANAGER & CONSULTANT __ PROCUREMENT
Re-Wiring procurement into a value engine.
Interim Manager Procurement and Consulting.
I take on interim management mandates and consulting engagements in procurement, supply chain and digital transformation — for mid-market companies and large enterprises. Fast, hands-on, and measured in EBITDA, not slide decks.
Fast impact. Smart technologies. Realized Value.
Interim management. Or consulting.
Both rooted in procurement.
__ TWO WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER
One expert, two engagement models — chosen based on whether you need a hands-on leader inside your organization, or expert guidance alongside your team.
__ INTERIM MANAGEMENT
I step into your organization as an accountable leader — not an advisor on the sidelines. Available fast, gone once the mandate is embedded. Sustainable Results.
Interim Management
Procurement & Supply Chain
Take the lead. Bridge the gap. Accelerate transformation.

__ FROM THE SHOP FLOOR
I began my career in procurement as an apprentice — with little more than curiosity, and the belief that few functions hold as much untapped potential. 25+ years later, that's still what drives me: as Interim Manager Procurement, I take responsibility where it counts — fast, pragmatic, and focused on what actually works.
Partner at Kerkhoff Consulting, Manager at Accenture, and 12 years at SAP as trusted advisor to C-level executives — I've led global, cross-functional teams across Europe, the Middle East, South Africa, India and the US. I know both sides: procurement, and the systems meant to run it.
