About me - Achim Bartelheimer

Leadership is not a tool for me, but an inner attitude. Interim Management means committing to an organization with full responsibility for a limited time – and being effective during that time. With this approach, I take on assignments: technically, operationally, and structurally.

My journey began as a graduate engineer in mechanical engineering – built on a solid foundation as a skilled worker, trained as a sheet metal worker (apparatus mechanic). Through various positions in development, manufacturing, and project management, I took on operational leadership responsibilities – initially in the technical field, later expanding into sales and business management. Executive functions, line responsibility, and international project work shape my current understanding of implementation and impact.

The industry is no walk in the park. Anyone who has established themselves in it for over 30 years knows cost pressure, tight deadlines, and the demands of personal mobility – and knows how to handle it. Determination, perseverance, endurance, and the unwavering will to achieve set goals are part of my professional DNA.

Today, I support companies in transition phases – as a temporary manager with a technical foundation, a business overview, and strong communication skills. Whether it's project leadership, sales development, or restructuring: I am effective where structures are required, communication must be honest, and implementation means more than just management.
