Semiconductors & electronics

Between expansion and cost pressure: teams that deliver

Europe is expanding semiconductor capacity while functions move to best-cost countries. I help build and relocate teams and reshape leadership structures.

The situation

A cyclical market, scarce specialists

New fabs and expansions need process, equipment and cleanroom specialists who are barely available. At the same time, the cyclical market forces restructuring and relocation. Managing both at once is the real challenge.

My experience

From the industry, not just for it

I learned the semiconductor industry at Infineon – as Vice President in the CLM function, leading around 450 employees at 16 sites worldwide.
