15 years in various management positions.
25 years of professional experience in procurement and
supply chain.
In my professional career, I have not only worked for well-known international companies such as LINDE plc (formerly Linde AG) and the ZF GROUP within and outside supply chain management, but also successfully implemented consulting projects as an independent advisor and consultant for renowned clients such as the BOSTON CONSULTING GROUP and EGON ZEHNDER.
I am an innovator in the field of digitalization with experience in leading several digital excellence projects - including a corporate start-up for a self-developed, cloud-based online marketplace for production-relevant spare parts.
Before founding ERIKESLY Advisory & Consulting, I was Head of Procurement Plant Operations for the EMEA operating segment in the Linde Gas division of Linde plc, where I was responsible for the post-merger integration following the merger of Praxair Inc. and Linde AG.
Previously, I held various managerial and expert roles in Procurement & Supply Chain Management in the EMEA region with responsibility for numerous strategic and operational projects.
My career began at the electrical wholesaler Datzer GmbH & Co. KG (now part of Sonepar) in Schweinfurt with an apprenticeship as a wholesale and foreign trade merchant. I then worked in scheduling, logistics and purchasing at what is now the ZF Group (formerly Mannesmann Sachs AG)
