I have been the Managing Partner of the German office since November 2023. I am Irish and spend much of my time in Germany supporting the team and our customers. I have two children and enjoy spending time with them. I am on the board of a charity that supports adults with intellectual disabilities, and I have a keen interest in supporting others to reach their potential.
The Bonn office
Office history
Analysys Mason acquired Allolio&Konrad Consulting GmbH in April 2020, but Allolio&Konrad Partnerschaft was originally founded in 2003. We have mainly focused on consulting projects for the telecoms industry, but have expanded our remit into the utilities and finance sectors over the years. The company has grown consistently since 2003, from 5 members of staff to a 50-person business, and our team continues to grow. Allolio&Konrad Partnerschaft was acquired by Ericsson in December 2016 and traded under Allolio&Konrad Consulting GmbH. Analysys Mason GmbH became the new brand name for our German entity in July 2020.

What am I looking for in a new hire?
I am looking for people with a sense of humour, people skills, intellect, problem-solving skills, communication skills, a willingness to try new things and the ability to learn quickly. I am also looking for people who are comfortable with social media and online collaboration tools. Mostly, we are looking for individuals who bring something valuable to our team that we can all appreciate and benefit from, and who understand and appreciate our culture and can share in our vision.

Our work
Typical projects
The Germany team are experts in undertaking major transformation and strategic change programmes within the telecoms, utilities and banking industries. Our clients trust us to run all major parts of their business-critical process and IT change programmes. We plan, manage and assure the roll-out of newly integrated billing, CRM, order management, product management and associated systems. Our work is frequently the critical building block in digitalisation transformations, post-merger integrations, system consolidations and cost reduction programmes.
Benefits
Travel and client exposure
We believe that we deliver the best value to our clients when working together in collaborative settings, both virtually and in clients’ offices. Our clients may work in a variety of environments (such as at home or in the office). This means that we expect our consultants to travel to clients’ offices when it is beneficial to the project and the client. Therefore, the extent of travel may vary from week to week.
We do not have fixed office days in our office in Bonn and we allow for mobile working from home or any other sensible location. Therefore, you can choose your place of residence within Europe, but it is helpful to choose a location with good public transport connections to ease the commute to the client.
Our onboarding philosophy is best summarised as ”training on the job”. We believe that this enables the steepest learning curve. From the first day onwards, it is important that you take on responsibility, which will grow naturally over time. Immediate client exposure is part of the deal.
Benefits
Office culture
Office dynamics and culture
Our culture is customer-centric. At the same time, we are aware of the wishes, interests and personal circumstances of our team members and accommodate those as best as we can. We avoid disturbing our team members on their well-deserved holidays. We do not expect our staff to be available 24/7, preferring instead to give you time to recharge.
The dress code in the office is casual. When visiting client offices, the dress code depends on the client’s rules. Your project team will provide you with the necessary information before you start.
Joint team activities span from lunch breaks to after-work drinks and joint sport activities at the different project locations. We also aim to bring the whole team together at least four times per year to allow for cross-account exchange.
