Why did you choose a medium-sized company?
Short communication paths, quick decision-making, and a positive team spirit were the key factors that convinced me.
What has been your biggest success in a project so far?
The completion and handover of the apartments in the quarter "Am Papierbach" in Landsberg am Lech, along with the happy faces of the new owners and residents. It gives me the sense of creating lasting value.
What challenges still lie ahead?
Implementing the overall development of the urban quarter in the current market environment and realizing the vision for the district with all stakeholders.
Can you imagine living there yourself?
Absolutely, if the architectural quality and vision align. What matters to me is a family-friendly environment, sustainable buildings, cultural and social diversity, and a high standard of architectural design. In my opinion, the district in Landsberg offers exactly that.
You actually come from a background in real estate sales – what made you decide to become a project manager?
Even back then, I really enjoyed actively helping to shape new construction projects from a sales perspective, and I found it fascinating to see how a green field ultimately became a real living space. Seeing a project grow and helping to shape it from the very beginning – that's what got me hooked on project development and ultimately motivated me to switch to this field.
Do you benefit from your experience as a sales representative?
Absolutely! Through my interactions with customers, I have developed a keen sense of what is important when designing properties. In addition, I was able to learn a great deal about structural and technical requirements during the planning stage, which has been very helpful to me as I transitioned into project development.
You are originally from Stuttgart. How did you end up in Munich and ultimately at ehret+klein?
I already had a connection to Munich and the surrounding area through friends and family. The proximity to the mountains and lakes in particular makes the region a great place to live for me, as I like to spend my free time outdoors. I came across ehret+klein through one of my professors from university, who taught in the field of project development. I then decided to send a speculative application – and as you can see, it was successful.
Our society is undergoing a multidimensional transformation that is resulting in massive changes to our socio-economic structures. This situation calls for new approaches and solutions, especially in the real estate industry. How can we improve our developed and undeveloped environment in an ecological and social context? The necessary trend reversal can only be achieved through cross-industry collaboration, a creative pioneering spirit and clever value creation strategies. At Ehret+Klein, these attributes are reflected both in our projects and in our personnel development policy. Anyone can contribute to human-centered urban development – not merely as an employee but as a co-creator. It is precisely this opportunity for entrepreneurial initiative and openness to new, innovative ideas that make the work environment here particularly attractive for me.
