Jens Berger

Senior IT consultant and project manager for banks and insurance companies. For more than 20 years I have been bringing complex IT projects safely to completion – structured, methodical and with technical depth.

I manage initiatives with high demands on regulation, security, infrastructure and communication My focus: projects that don't just get finished, but run stably in the long term.

 

My approach

I work by a clear principle: reduce complexity, increase impact. Projects succeed when structure, communication and technical depth come together.

My story

More than 20 years of IT experience – from large banking projects to modern automation setups. I love systems that work cleanly and solutions you understand rather than merely accept.

My path into IT began in 1986 – on the line, not at the computer.

As a telecommunications technician I first learned how communication really works, before studying electrical engineering and computer science. This blend of hands-on practice and academic depth still shapes my work today.

At Hewlett‑Packard I led international software and integration projects for clients such as Vodafone, e.on and BEKB – with responsibility for budgets in the millions. At PAYBACK and Cassini, agile transformation and mobile projects were added.

For years my focus has been the banking and financial sector:

  • Helaba: Major project for the introduction of a credit securitisation system

  • Finanz Informatik: BaFin findings in the SIEM environment, preliminary study Office_neo

  • Sparkasse Bremen: Strategic major project in the risk and credit environment

 

I manage projects with clear structures, honest risk assessment and communication at eye level – from business units to the board.

Would you like to stabilise, modernise or rebuild a project?

Let's talk – I'll be glad to support you – professionally, reliably and at eye level.
