Christina Heine
Saulheim
Summary
I am a highly motivated employee who works well in a team and demands the information I need to get the job done. I actively participate in constructive discussions to promote a strong team result and drive project development. This approach has brought me great satisfaction in my previous roles and I am confident that I can make a valuable contribution to your company. I quickly and comprehensively familiarize myself with a wide range of topics in order to gain the necessary understanding. I believe in a respectful and fair dialogue with stakeholders at an equal level. I will be obtaining my Bachelor's degree in Professional Procurement, and by Q1 2025, I will have also completed the MBA Green Belt program. I am confident that I will make a significant contribution to Lilly Alzey over the next few years, laying the groundwork for the company's future success.
