What We Bring to the Table
StartOpsReady:
Startup Operational Leadership
—
Built on operational reality – not on frameworks
Built on decades of global leadership experience across the tech and semiconductor ecosystem — including VP-level responsibility, multi-billion-euro purchasing volumes, and large-scale organizational leadership — this work is now applied where structure is urgently needed but rarely in place: in startups, scale-ups, and portfolio companies under pressure.
Experience spans building and restructuring supply chains, navigating procurement through crisis situations, optimizing working capital, and stabilising complex operational environments.
This work focuses on hands-on, executive-level support across four operational pillars that matter most.
The 4 operational pillars
Supply & Sourcing Strategy:
Over two decades of experience designing global supplier networks across complex industries — balancing cost, availability and scalability from early-stage product to mature volume.
Interim CPO / COO Support:
Hands-on leadership in international procurement environments, with the ability to step in quickly, create structure, and ensure a clean handover.
Ramp-up & Shortage Management:
Proven track record managing critical supply constraints during high-stakes ramp-ups — via escalation routines, supplier taskforces and demand-control levers.
Cash & Cost Discipline:
Deep expertise in aligning procurement with liquidity goals — optimizing working capital, inventory turns and sourcing strategies under pressure.
