Your candidates expect an exciting job, but also a motivating and fair salary package. I develop a package for your key people that is competitive both externally and internally.
With 25 years of experience as an international HR manager with responsibility for talent acquisition, I know the challenges of medium-sized companies.

Besides consulting, I work as a freelance lecturer at the University of Europe in Berlin with young, curious people.

I have worked with Oliver-san to lead change management for a small-medium sized enterprise in North Asia region. We worked together for changing the local grading system to align with the global one and for creating a talent matrix. His strength is not only C&B and Talent Management area but also his active listening skills to understand the people and culture to make things happen. In my experience Oliver-san has added real value on the business, and brings a fantastic mix of professionalism, insight, creativity with sense of humor. I would highly recommend Oliver-san for your HR transformation.

Oliver supported the directors of Fonterra (Logistics) Ltd in difficult projects: The restructuring of the company included developing and implementing termination of long service staff (redundancy). Oliver handled these with professionalism and respect for staff, while maintaining the companys position. He also consulted local management on sourcing and implementing pension schemes for staff as part of the compliance requirements of UK Employment law. He worked diligently to obtain the required level of detail understanding to be able to give guidance for management decisions. His collaborative style was highly appreciated in the local company.
