I'm a motivated logistics professional with interests across many areas of logistics. I'm an enthusiastic team player who doesn't shy away from giving that little bit extra. Thanks to my experience across all layers of multiple companies, I'm a good sparring partner at every level. On the sporting side, you'll often find me on the padel or tennis court.
With 25 years of knowledge and experience in supply chain behind me, I can help design, build and manage a sustainable supply chain. With attention to structure, governance, processes, innovations and software — but above all with attention to the organisation and its professionals. I have extensive (project) experience within trading companies, logistics service providers, and as a consultant.
Every organisation is unique, even though clients operate in the same world with comparable opportunities and risks. As a supply chain professional, I immerse myself in what makes an organisation unique, and from there I help it move forward. First understand, then be understood — with attention and respect for who people are and what they do. I quickly get up to speed and sharply distinguish the essentials from the side issues. By listening intensively and asking the right questions, I quickly get to the core, with a focus on renewal because everything can always be better. There is always room for growth and development in organisations and professionals. Change can give the impression that you haven't done it well all these years — so renew rather than change!
