KGM Strategy continues to grow \u2013 With the opening of our office in Madrid, we are bringing our procurement expertise to the Spanish market. In this interview, our Managing Director Manuel Berlanga<\/span> talks about the first few months at the new location, as well as his motivation and strategic vision for the team.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
Please briefly describe your professional background and how you came to KGM Strategy.<\/span><\/h3>\n
I have worked in procurement for most of my career, including nine years in consulting and twelve years as a manager in various industries. During this time, I continued to work as a consultant, as I believe that procurement is key to optimizing costs and driving innovation for many companies. During my time in industry, I particularly missed the excitement that comes with fast-moving projects, the dynamics of continuous change, and the exceptional quality of work that is typical of consultants.<\/span><\/p><\/div>
Why did you choose KGM Strategy?<\/span><\/h3>\n
I firmly believe that we add value through implementation and restructuring, not just designing a strategy. We are a procurement consultancy at heart – this focus allows us to develop extensive knowledge in different industries and areas. KGM Strategy\u2019s corporate culture was also an important factor in my decision – because we really care about our employees.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
How did you find your first few weeks? \n Were your expectations met?<\/span><\/h4>\n
We initiated two projects at the same timeand had to quickly get familiar with additional stakeholders and two different corporate cultures. I am very grateful for the onboarding process and the support that the entire team in Madrid received from everyone. This allowed us to settle into our roles and develop skills in record time. I am overwhelmed
by the number of requests we have received from clients that we are unable to fulfill as we are at capacity until mid-2024. KGM Strategy really is in the fast lane! <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
