WELCOME TO DR. MARKUS BRAUN
I am
Dr. Markus Braun
an HR Interim Manager
for medium & large companies
Dynamic markets, increasing competition, changing corporate strategies, investments
by private equity companies, increasing digitalization as well as changing working environments:
All these require that HR must realign itself along this changed business orientation, strategically, organizationally and in terms of personnel, content and processes.
It is not the self-optimization of HR that determines the HR orientation and thus the company's success, but the other way around: „HR follows Business & Business follows Market“.
Due to the increasing speed of today’s working world, many HR departments are in a phase of transformation. They have to adapt to the changed conditions.
External support may quickly become necessary here:
▪ An external perspective provides new impulses.
▪ Additional capacities bridge internal resource shortages.
▪ Specialized knowledge balances insufficient, internal experience & knowledge.
My experience will help you to achieve your goals and optimize your business situation.

Service & quality are not projects, but an attitude!
Neither “do something for the customer” nor “more is better” can be the motto. “Doing the right thing for the customer, in top quality” must be the maxim.
Only a consistent focus on customer needs creates customer satisfaction and business success.
These orientations are my cornerstones for the function as an HR service provider and trusting sparring partner!
13 years in permanent HR employment & more than 14 years as HR Interim Manager provided a broad and well-founded wealth of HR experience
Consistent alignment of high-quality services to customer needs
Target group-oriented and essential presentations of HR topics - prepared in a visually appealing manner
implementation-oriented - get the power on the road as fast as possible
results-oriented - bringing issues across the finish line
participative - involve employees
high level of commitment
quick perception
get on well with people

Vice President Human Resources
"Dr. Markus Braun supported me extremely professionally in the very extensive, global transformation of the HR area within the Syntegon Group. After the carve-out of Syntegon from the Bosch Group in 2020, the aim was to establish the company's "stand-alone capability" and to set up all processes within the HR area in line with a modern, global, medium-sized company with around 6,000 employees. The main aim was to standardize and digitize the processes, which had previously been very heterogeneous both nationally and internationally, to achieve a significant increase in efficiency.
As part of his project assignment, Dr. Braun delivered outstanding results that were very valuable for the success of the transformation. Particularly noteworthy are:
• his diverse skills and ability to work in the various disciplines of the HR area
• his extremely quick grasp of complex relationships and the ability to develop very good solutions
• his ability to present tasks in a way that is appropriate for the target group and focused on the essentials, in a visually very professional manner (e.g. in presentations)
• his high level of commitment
• and his very pleasant human and collegial manner, which enabled him to quickly integrate into the team structure.
I am very grateful to Dr. Braun for the work he has done, would hire him again at any time if the need arises and can recommend him in every respect.
March 2021
CFO
"I would like to thank Markus for 14 eventful months. During this time, you accompanied us as HR manager with a high degree of professionalism. We were all particularly impressed by the fact that you managed to leave behind formative structures in a very short space of time and to anchor our HR department at a significantly higher level. In addition, we will remember your ability to explain and present complicated HR issues in an understandable and management-friendly way. We wish you all the best for your future and the challenges ahead. Thank you again."
December 2019
Senior Vice President Human Resources
"The methacrylate group of Evonik Industries AG was spun off as an independent company in August 2019 after many years of affiliation. The HR and HR IT services obtained from the parent company could still be used for a certain period after the carve-out. Markus' task was to provide a procedure and consulting services to become independent of Evonik in the HR area as quickly as possible. At the end of 2019, we finally had all the necessary content and process requirements for the HR IT service providers to implement the HR processes. I would like to thank Markus very much. His experience has contributed to the fact that we will probably no longer have to purchase HR and HR IT services from Evonik at the beginning of 2021. I wish him all the best for the future."
March 2019
Head of Global HR Total Rewards & Human Resources Germany
"As I have come to know and appreciate Mr. Braun from a previous collaboration, I have now resorted to his services and experience again. He initially held the position of Head of Department "Group HR Compensation & Benefits Germany" to bridge a vacancy. Due to restructuring, he then took over the "Benefits Germany" department and also supported us with analyses and overviews for process and structural improvements in the "Center of Excellence Total Rewards" department. What I particularly value about Mr. Braun is his ability to familiarize himself with topics quickly and to the extent necessary. He can prepare strategic aspects and operational details in terms of structure and process and integrate both HR management and HR processing in a way that is appropriate for the target group. Due to his broad HR portfolio, he has also supported us in other HR projects, e.g. in a business transfer due to a change in the company structure or in building up restructuring know-how. I am already looking forward to our professional paths crossing again. Thank you very much for the pleasant collaboration."
April 2017
Head of HR Germany
"I would like to expressly thank Dr. Braun for his flexibility and willingness to provide support at short notice. As part of a foreign M&A activity, his experience helped us to meet the initially ambitious time-frame requirements of the EU and US antitrust authorities. Thank you again and all the best for the future."
September 2016
Country Manager Germany
"In early summer 2016, we came up with the idea of getting an additional, objective and neutral opinion on the potential of the 15-person sales team in the field. I came across Dr. Braun pretty quickly through my own network. He was to demonstrate the team's professional and personal development potential in individual discussions. We were also interested in his recommendations for the suitability of employees to take on regional team leader roles. Mr. Braun's results really confirmed my opinion of my team. In addition, his individual SWOT analysis and his overall view reinforced the ideas for personnel and organizational changes. I found Mr. Braun to be very professional. His experience in dealing with sales people as well as his friendly manner and good knowledge of people made working together very pleasant. Thank you very much!"
January 2016
Managing Director & Senior Vice President Sales Region DACH
"Dr. Braun was responsible for the Austrian sales region as HR Business Partner. As part of this role, he drove forward a restructuring and conducted the corresponding negotiations with the works council and the employees affected. Part of this restructuring was also a centralization of the entire internal service. In addition, he introduced a new commission system for our field staff. Dr. Braun lived HR with a high level of social skills. With great independence and always with the solution or the goal in mind, he was reliable and persistent in implementation. He was a good sparring partner at management level with good entrepreneurial thinking and action. I would like to expressly thank him for the exceptionally good cooperation and can recommend him wholeheartedly."
Juni 2014
Managing Director of Technology
"The further development of our HR department was the focus of Dr. Braun's assignment. He was very good at transferring his experience and knowledge to our medium-sized family business. In this way, initiatives in the areas of employer branding, recruiting and vocational training could be implemented and some process optimizations carried out. I would like to thank Dr. Braun for his commitment and wish him all the best for the future."
July 2013
Senior Vice President Human Resources
"After decades of belonging to the Siemens Group, OSRAM was spun off at the beginning of July 2013 and went public as an independent company. The structures that had grown in the parent company had to be replaced by our own approaches and solutions, including in the global HR organization. Dr. Braun supported us significantly in this complex project with his broad HR experience. His overview of numerous individual topics while still keeping an eye on the "big picture" contributed to the success of the project. It was also important to us that he always acted reliably and maintained adequate communication with management. I would like to thank Dr. Braun for his work."
September 2012
Managing Director
"Dr. Braun's concept created a very good basis for discussion for future development. It was about ideas for strengthening the bond between IT experts and binder|consulting. The introduction of an individual, performance-related fee /salary component was the essential building block. The basis for this was incentivized, personal goals with a performance-related, modular bonus system and a grading system as a development system for IT engineering services. These cornerstones are valuable for our future planning with permanent and freelance employees."
March 2011
Senior Vice President Human Resources
"Dr. Braun supported us as part of a recruiting project. The technological change in the lighting industry - from the light bulb to LED technology - requires a different kind of engineers, developers and product managers. He took responsibility for the entire application process, from the job description to contract negotiations, as well as for coordinating the HR consultancy. In addition to his great technical expertise, I particularly liked his commitment to his task and to OSRAM. I can unreservedly recommend Dr. Braun as a passionate, competent and results-oriented consultant."
March 2011
Managing Director
"Dr. Braun gave me valuable advice when I founded my company. The focus was on setting up the company organization and questions about all HR-relevant aspects. He always knew how to ask the right questions at the right time and generated input for further dialogue that was tailored to my situation and appropriate. I never had the feeling that I was being given something "off the shelf."
