Interim Business Manager | Succesfull growth via proven Management, Advice & Coaching programs As COO/COS for a recent employer (a multibillion dollar software IT company), I was not only responsible for the international business operation and organic growth, but also part of the corporate M&A team to acquire and integrate new companies for our external growth programs. In my task as COO/COS I was responsible for a smooth - yet fast- post merger integration for acquisitions in the international market. Currently working as interim M&A manager and COO for a Benelux software organization. Just finished another acquisition for them, including the due dilligence workflows and carve out of a business unit. Together with Deloitte (for the financial due diligence) I was leading the commercial due diligence workflow (Buy) and preparing – again - a smooth - yet fast- post merger integration (Build). Today I’m interim COO, leading the PMI process and restructuring yet another company within the group. You might see (a majority of) commercial activities floating by on my resume.. because that is a key element for a successful M&A process (Buy & Build)… I like to combine my (commercial) M&A PMI experiences and activities, with other senior specialists in this field, like • IT and culture (https://www.provenu.eu/ ) • Finance & HR (Deloitte.com) • Logistics • Etc.
