Working with Anne-Lena means having a reliable, resilient, experienced HR professional at your side

Meghan Gault
CPO CAIS (former CPO Abacum and Director of People at N26)

Anne-Lena worked very closely with me and was part of my team at N26 as a business partner and later Talent Management expert. With her passion and drive to push forward change in the organization she stayed restless to work on large company wide initiatives such as performance management, leadership onboarding and development. She quickly built trust with her critical stakeholders and structured complex work effectively. Working with Anne-Lena means having a reliable, resilient, experienced HR professional at your side who can stay calm and focused in high workload and uncertainty. She is very curious and a strong learner, asking for feedback to improve consistently. It was a pleasure to have her in my team and I'd highly recommend her for anyone who looks to work with a resilient, knowledgeable, strategic HR professional.


Rani is a highly experienced, thoughtful and strong leader in People & Culture.

Director People Strategy, Rewards and Delivery, Blacklane 

Rani is a highly experienced, thoughtful and strong leader in People & Culture. It was my pleasure to work with her on building impactful and value-added various people programs including designing detailed job levelling structure, revamping performance management practices and compensation trainings. Rani is a strong business partner, who has the charisma to build strong connections, challenge and influence stakeholders effectively. During her time as interim Director P&C at Blacklane, she played her role well to build the bridge between C-level and the team to drive P&C programs forward.

Throughout our collaboration, I always found a trusted sparring partner.

Arno Schleussner
VP Finance at N26

I had the pleasure of working with Anne-Lena in my early days of building the Finance function at N26. This time was characterised by a lot of change, following the hypergrowth we had been in. In her role as an experienced HR Business Partner, she proactively provided advice, important outside in perspective and took the role of a challenging partner in the development, growth and reorganisation of the Finance teams. Throughout our collaboration, I always found a trusted sparring partner, who proactively co-piloted strategic HR initiatives in the team. She has a genuine curiosity for the business and brings in her HR expertise when it matters. I found in Anne-Lena a business partner who understands to think strategically but also finds hands on solutions that work for organisations of our size operating at high speed. I would always like to work with her again and highly recommend her and her work.

I can highly recommend to work with Rani!

Paul Schwarzenholz
Founder and Managing Director Draxon (Former CEO& Founder Zenloop)

I have worked closely with Rani over the past year. I consider her a very knowledgeable people leader who was really able to bring in positive change and fresh perspectives in zenloop.

Coming in, Rani was able to quickly identify and prioritise what had to be done. Her accomplishments are many and included setting up a regular reporting structure for the people function, hiring & building a strong leadership team & also putting in place an employment framework that enables us to hire and attract talent across multiple countries in the EU & UK. One of the things she is very passionate about is diversity and inclusion (putting it into action, not just talking about it) and she was never afraid to challenge situations in a direct and constructive manner. I enjoyed working with Rani a lot and hope we have the opportunity again in the future.

I can highly recommend to work with Rani and I am happy to always serve as a reference.

I always look forward to get her insights on any and all people topics.
