Ioannis Amarantidis

Horizon Grants Expert - Senior Project Manager

Few words about me...

Experienced in managerial and operational level. I was part of a rather small but very competent team where team effort, strong collaboration and mutual responsibility were key factors of the success. Indeed, I worked in coordination and leadership through individual projects but also I dealt with technical assistance and administration support through all phases of project development and implementation work.

What People Say About me

Ioannis Amarantidis has worked with me between 2016 and 2021. I directly managed Ioannis during my role as R&D Director in Region Jämtland Härjedalen. Ioannis has together with co-workers actively been part of a small team that has built up Project Centre within Region Jämtland Härjedalen, a centre that is today well known within the European framework of Horizon grants. Ioannis combines intellectual power, a "can do" attitude, and an unparalleled team working spirit. In addition to his analytical skills, Ioannis is motivated, and can motivate other to reach a common goal. Ioannis is very sociable with great communication skills both internally in our organisation, and externally with partners worldwide. He has done an excellent job of finding partners, building new partnerships, and representing our organisation in the European market related to health innovation.
.
I do wholeheartedly agree with every word of Göran Larsson, additionally, I add the following: In specifying how Ioannis has contributed to the strong Team attitude that has been ProjectCentre's key to success within the EU Horizon 2020 field, I want to mention his personal strengths; Ioannis understands the difference between being a team member on paper / in word as opposed to acting as a team member. To use some of his words of what identifies a strong team "Align personal goals with the Team’s"; "Holistic thinking and acting (no silos)"; "Generous collaborative approach"; Ioannis puts value in loyalty and support of his team mates. He actions and attitude are very much based in a strong professional approach to his work as well as co-workers. As his Manager, I do appreciate his influence - Ioannis is a "bearer of a culture" that he has been part of creating - ProjectCentre's team culture.
I have known & collaborated with Ioannis during my role as Sales Manager at SIMVAN Consulting Co. Ioannis has always been a trustful colleague, committed to his targets. He is a hard worker with a great personality. I have been consistently impressed with John's attitude and productivity during the time that he has worked in the office. He produces a high volume of work while consistently maintaining high standards for quality and accuracy. John attitude is taking on all tasks with a positive energy and a smile. He is very well organized and keeps track of the details necessary needed to run an efficient office. I volunteered to write this recommendation for John because I am very grateful for his contributions to our office and very confident that he has the intelligence, work ethic, and communications skills to add value wherever he works.
Ioannis Amarantidis has a great knowledge in managing, performing, and follow-up of EU funded Horizon 2020 projects .
