About

Passionate international Compensation & Benefits Leader who partners with HR managers, local management, regional leaders and corporate senior leadership to develop a well-balanced, market competitive and attractive remuneration package. Additional responsibility as HRBP in Belgium (EMEA HQ), Netherlands (Operations & commercial) & corporate functions in EMEA. After spending a nearly a decade working as a consultant at the big 4, I decided to join the HR community as compensation & benefits and HRBP professional. I believe in a global structured and creative HR philosophy tailored to regional and/or country-specific needs - no two countries are the same!
