I can be described as loyal, energetic, creative and analytical. Developing creative solutions and improving processes gives me energy. Taking a team along as an enthusiastic driving force is my great natural strength. In my free time I'm a reserve soldier and I dive a lot. I live with my wife and two cats in the 'most beautiful' city behind the dunes: The Hague.
During and after my International Business & Management Studies degree, I held various leadership positions as a team lead in logistics and production at companies including de Bijenkorf and Technische Unie. I then completed an intensive Data Analytics bootcamp (3 months full-time at Iron Hack Amsterdam), which means I can explain my findings from the floor or analyse them further as a basis for optimisation. That combination makes me broadly deployable in the world of logistics and supply chains.
At UC Group I've delivered several successful interim assignments for, among others, a leading mobility-rental company. With a strong lean mindset and an eye for the human side, I achieved significant cost savings there, helped build more effective and capable teams, and made processes more efficient.
The company Welzorg supplies wheelchairs, mobility scooters and other mobility aids for elderly people and people with disabilities. These tools are supplied on a lease basis by municipalities to individuals who are entitled to them under the Social Support Act (WMO). Welzorg is responsible for the intake, delivery of aids, in-use service, intake, revision and disposal. The company is part of the Louwman Group, has its headquarters in Raamsdonksveer and has 14 local offices that employ a total of around 300 people.
