Über Tim

Tim is a partner in Simon-Kucher’s Cologne office and a senior member of the Healthcare & Life Sciences practice. He supports senior leaders with commercial decisions that improve price realization and net revenue.

With more than 10 years of consulting experience at Simon-Kucher, Tim advises C-suite and commercial leadership teams on pricing and revenue decisions with material financial impact. He is typically engaged when pricing structures no longer scale, gross-to-net dynamics lack transparency, or commercial models need to be reset.

His core expertise is the design and implementation of commercial models that hold under real-world conditions, with a focus on:

  • positioning strategy
  • offer and portfolio structure
  • gross-to-net design, governance, and rollout

Tim works across manufacturers and providers, including pharma, consumer health, animal health, and healthcare providers. He also advises private equity–owned healthcare assets, supporting value creation through disciplined pricing and revenue management.

He leads projects across Europe and global markets, including APAC, MENA, and Latin America, helping organizations balance global pricing intent with local execution.

Tim earned a Master of Arts in Strategy & International Management from the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland, and earned a BSc in Business Administration from the University of Mannheim, Germany.
