About

✈️ Started in aerospace at GKN Fokker – one of the best decisions I ever made. It gave me a solid foundation, a global outlook, and set me on the path to my current role as COO at Dieseko Group. 🌍 I thrive in international, hands-on environments, love connecting with people, and get energy from working side-by-side towards a shared goal. 🏃‍♂️ Outside work, you’ll find me running, cycling, or pushing myself in triathlons and endurance races. 🔍 Ready for my next step – ideally in a small to mid-sized technical company where I can make real impact, stay close to the customer, and combine leadership with a dash of commercial focus.
