From bank apprenticeship to IT consultant: We welcome Alex to linkyard

In which function do you work at linkyard and how will your work look like?

I am employed at linkyard as a Senior IT Project Manager and am happy to support my clients, mainly from the public sector.

Describe your background.

After completing a banking apprenticeship and training as a developer, I began my more than 20-year career in SAP. As a project manager, I was involved in the SAP rollout in Latin America and expanded my experience as an IT manager in Mexico. Back in Switzerland, I took on management positions in IT service operations and system operations.

At the Panalpina Group, as Head of IT Service Delivery, IT Security Program Manager and ITO Portfolio Manager, I demonstrated my skills in managing services and key programs and projects. These roles allowed me to gain extensive knowledge in leading IT projects and IT management.

In my current role as IT Consultant at Linkyard, I contribute my extensive experience in IT project management and consulting. In addition to my professional activities, I have continued my education in IT management and blockchain technology, which further deepens my broad expertise in IT.

How would you describe yourself in one sentence?

I am an international, committed and versatile team and family person, good-natured and always keen to develop professionally and learn new things.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

In my free time, I like to spend quality time with my family. I like to cook, keep up to date with modern technology and try not to neglect my fitness. I also attend church once a week. These activities help me to stay balanced and recharge my batteries for my professional tasks.

Do stairs lead up or down?

It depends on the perspective. Stairs are used to move people between different levels, so they can lead both upwards and downwards. In a metaphorical sense, I see stairs as a symbol of progress and development - always one step at a time, whether going up or down.
