Bart van de Molengraft

About

Highly experienced and energetic COO, motivated by challenging the status quo. Proven ability to define key priorities with my teams and implement measures with a pragmatic approach. Pragmatic means to me that I safeguard prompt improvements of the business performance (cost synergies, topline growth, working capital reduction). Clear preference to foster open- and direct communication to ensure that all heads are pointing in the same direction. I keep my promises and take full ownership to deliver on the agreed goals. Experienced in corporate (matrix) structure, Family Equity (Haniel), Family Owned Business (van Mossel, EDCO), Private Equity (Rivean).
