Freelance and consultant in military aviation

I bring more than 15 years of experience across engineering, services, quality management, business development and procurement in military aviation. I can support you to enter, grow or sharpen your position in this highly complex industry.

Military aviation is too complex to be mastered through technology, enthusiasm or business theory alone. At the same time, applying every traditional aerospace process to a young company can slow innovation down unnecessarily.

The line between agility and required processes in aviation is thin. My role is to help you find the right balance by combining practical industry experience, a strong professional network and a clear understanding of both corporate and start-up environments.

What I can offer you: An industry-specific reality check from a corporate perspective

I provide a practical perspective on your business, technology or project. My objective is not to apply generic management frameworks or simplify a complex challenge with standard business terminology. My objective is to help you understand how you are likely to be perceived, evaluated and implemented within the military aviation industry.
