Jochen Adler’s Summary

Self-starting, self-taught developer of computer games titles and small business software at teen age. Via developer/consultant positions at a startup software company launching a successful standard banking software product, I joined an internationally renowned IT consulting and systems integration provider with a strong CRM competence and presence. Several years of consulting and project leadership roles on integration and consulting engagements before I transferred internally -- after an acquisition -- to become the project manager for a world-wide ERP implementation. More recently and currently, I am tasked with evolving the CRM and Call Center solutions at my employer to further strengthen our position in telephone retail banking.
