Team & Advisory Board
The people behind Janze & Janze
We are deliberately a small team. That means you work with the people you see here – not with a rotating cast. Our profiles differ, and that is entirely intentional: in transformation, strategy, technology, organisation and communication belong together.
Management
Founders
Jana Janze
Founder and Managing Director
Jana Janze has spent more than fifteen years working on the digital transformation of ministries, federal states and municipalities – in Germany and internationally. She builds innovation labs and digitalisation units, shapes strategies and services from the user’s perspective, and knows the procurement of digital solutions from both sides: as a consultant and as founder and managing director of the GovTech start-up GovMarket. At Janze & Janze she is responsible for strategy consulting, public-sector innovation and building the firm.
Peter Janze
Founder and Managing Director
Peter Janze combines more than fifteen years of IT consulting with leadership experience of his own: as CIO and CDO, as managing director of the digitalisation and consulting subsidiary of the City of Munich, and as an associate partner at an international strategy consultancy. His focus areas are IT strategy and architecture, cloud, digital sovereignty and open source, as well as SAP transformations – always tied to the question of how organisations and working environments need to change alongside them. His “Digital Workplace” project earned him the “CIO of the Year” award.

Advisory Board
Senior Advisors
Sascha Platen
Advisory Board
Sascha Platen has been supporting care facilities and hospitals since 2007 in introducing digital solutions and needs-based care concepts. As an investor, he works with start-ups to develop approaches that counter the skills shortage in nursing. His focus areas: digital transformation and the turnaround of healthcare organisations. On the Advisory Board he acts as a sparring partner to the management team.
Dr. Susan Niemeyer
Advisory Board
Dr. Susan Niemeyer is managing director of a company for billing and care management in the healthcare sector and has held leadership positions in the healthcare industry for many years. Her focus areas are strategy development, transformation and building strategic networks. Holding a doctorate in communication science and an MBA, she also supports healthcare start-ups as an author and adviser.

What the Advisory Board does
Our Advisory Board advises our management team – not our clients. The Senior Advisors contribute their leadership experience from the healthcare sector as sparring partners: on strategic decisions, in the further development of our offering and with an honest view from the outside. This keeps Janze & Janze small as a team, but broad in experience.
