About me Franz Korbjuhn, independent IT consultant in Hamburg.

As an IT consultant in Hamburg, I advise businesses on their IT and carry out the agreed work myself. My experience covers Microsoft 365, device management, networks and ongoing support. I also work alongside in-house IT teams that need extra capacity.

Franz Korbjuhn, IT consultant in Hamburg
Background

How I came to IT consulting.

I have been self-employed since 2012, with one break: from 2015 to 2018 I was employed and looked after the entire IT of an agency with around 40 staff at the time. Since 2018 I have supported that agency as its external IT partner. It has since grown to more than 100 staff.

I studied building and energy engineering. I have worked in IT for more than a decade on a wide range of tasks, from networks and servers to Microsoft 365 and automation. Before I recommend a new solution, I check how well it can be run and supported day to day.

One focus is professionally managed macOS environments, including companies with more than 150 staff working entirely on Macs. I connect those Macs to Microsoft 365, Intune and Apple Business Manager.

What I recommend, I implement myself. With many clients I then look after it for years.

Why self-employed

I enjoy working with different businesses and people. My clients include agencies, law firms, medical practices, architecture and planning offices, trades businesses, non-profit organisations and also operators of critical infrastructure. Every client brings different requirements, and that variety is what I like about my work.

What you can expect

You deal with me directly. I explain my proposals, agree changes with you and document the work. If your in-house team will run things later, I involve them early. And once we have known each other for a while, we sometimes talk about what comes next over lunch.

What I mean by good IT

How I work.

These things matter to me when we work together.

  1. 01 / 06

    Understand how you work.

    Before I change anything, I want to know how your business operates and why your systems were set up the way they are. My proposals build on that.

  2. 02 / 06

    Explain effort and costs.

    Before you commission any work, we go through what is planned. For licences and contracts I compare the options against what you actually need. My records of work show what you are paying for.

  3. 03 / 06

    Bring in specialists.

    For penetration testing or forensics I bring in specialist partners. I coordinate the work and remain your point of contact.

  4. 04 / 06

    Choose solutions that can be run.

    I consider how a solution can be maintained and extended later. I only build something custom where existing products do not do the job properly.

  5. 05 / 06

    Check the benefit.

    A tool has to fit your task. With automation and AI, we therefore start with the process, the data and the result you want.

  6. 06 / 06

    Hand over documentation.

    I record the setup and key decisions. Documentation and credentials belong to you, and your team gets what it needs to keep things running.

Away from IT

What else occupies me.

What I do when the computer is off.

Wood and the workshop

I like building things out of wood. Over the years, quite a collection of Bosch Professional tools has gathered in the basement.

Piano

I play the piano.

Photography

It started as a hobby; these days I take photos semi-professionally.

Family

Happily married and a father since early 2026. I could do with a little more time for sport.
