About

HR and Talent professional with extensive experience in recruitment, talent development and people leadership, gained across multinational and multicultural environments. Over the years, I have built and supported teams, helped employees and managers navigate growth and change, and contributed to people practices that balance business needs with a strong human focus. My experience spans end-to-end recruitment, onboarding, training and coaching, as well as designing and improving HR processes, contributing to cross-functional projects, and helping build strong team cultures that support performance, engagement and development. I enjoy roles where I can combine people support with structure, coordination and continuous improvement: attracting the right talent, supporting leaders and employees in their development, streamlining ways of working, and creating environments where people can collaborate, grow and perform at their best. I have also delivered trainings, facilitated workshops and presentations, and coached both employees and leaders on a wide range of people-related topics. I work fluently in English, French and Dutch, with a basic knowledge of German, and I thrive in international settings where adaptability, cultural awareness and collaboration are essential. Personally, I am known for being highly organized, resilient and solution-oriented, with a positive mindset, strong analytical skills and a clear communication style. I am at my best in roles where I can combine hands-on execution with a broader people perspective, bring structure to complexity, and turn ideas into practical and impactful outcomes.
