My Job

As senior director, I counsel and/or head the trade associations hosted by Grayling in the field of energy and construction.

My Experience

Secretary-general of various trade associations in the food sector at international, European and Belgian level; noteworthy the International Special Dietary Foods federation (ISDI), the European Bakery Ingredients Suppliers’ federation (FEDIMA) and Belgian Millers Association (KVBM-ARMB).

Started my career as political advisor to a Dutch Member of the European Parliament (MEP) where I helped my MEP drafting the annual report on Turkey’s accession to the European Union.

I feel the greatest recognition is that officials and elected people call you.
