Director Facilities and Real Estate - APAC @ Koch

About

As Director Facilities Operations and Real Estate for Koch organizations in APAC region, I am responsible to support Facilities Management, Corporate Real Estate, Projects, and Corporate Security functions for multiple Koch companies. With over 23 years of experience in the industry, I have a proven track record of delivering high-quality services, optimizing processes, and managing complex projects across diverse geographies and sectors. My core competencies include strategic planning, budgeting, vendor management, contract negotiation, risk assessment and management, compliance and governance, and stakeholder engagement. I am passionate about bringing superior and consistent values to the organizations by using fewer resources and helping people and business to transform. I believe life is a consistent journey of self-actualization. This mental model helps us to be open and collaborate better with people and society. This perspective of business management helps us to hold people increasingly contribution motivated, transparent and accountable, which enable business to quickly transform based on the changing demands to remain successful. I believe a proven track record, honesty, integrity, humility, respect and consistent learning is critical to collaborate and bring superior values for the organization.
