RESTRUCTURING & TURNAROUND

Crises rarely arise overnight: shrinking margins, rising costs, deferred decisions, while banks and shareholders expect reliable numbers. In this situation I take on operational responsibility to quickly create transparency, secure liquidity and implement measures consistently.

The goal is a predictable turnaround: cut costs, streamline processes and make the business model viable again, without damaging delivery capability and customer relationships.
Resulting, not consulting: taking responsibility and delivering results, not just recommending them.

Typical situations for a restructuring mandate
As Interim COSO I held operational responsibility for the restructuring at 7StepsSolution: First, transparency about the economic situation: liquidity, cost structure and earnings drivers were made visible and translated into a reliable steering logic, as the basis for fast, well-founded decisions.

On this basis, liquidity and cash flow were actively managed, costs cut on a prioritized basis and processes streamlined, without damaging the performance of the core business. In parallel, the business model was realigned toward viable revenue sources.

Result: a stabilized liquidity position, clear KPI-based steering and a realigned business model that gives the company room to maneuver and a perspective again.

Crisis leadership at full load. Responsibility for P&L and team.
erlebe-fernreisen · Managing Director: As Managing Director I carried full P&L responsibility for around 33 million euros in revenue and about 100 employees, in an industry that came to a standstill practically overnight because of the COVID crisis.

What was needed was a restructuring under extreme conditions: secure liquidity, radically adjust the cost base, reorganize processes and at the same time hold the team and customer trust together.

This experience shapes my turnaround approach: clear in analysis, decisive in implementation and close to people and operational reality, precisely when it counts under pressure.

P&L responsibility for around 33 million euros in revenue and about 100 employees.
