Jens Van Dinter - Best in Brussels

Jens Van Dinter,

My Job

I’m a public affairs adviser specialising in EU trade policy, EU competitiveness, and industrial policy. I help clients anticipate and analyse regulatory change, translate complex EU files into clear, decision-ready strategies, and run advocacy campaigns that deliver results.

I advise clients across multiple sectors, combining policy expertise with strategic communications to support effective engagement with EU and national decision-makers. My work often sits at the intersection of politics, industry and regulation helping clients navigate fast-moving legislative files and position themselves credibly with institutions and stakeholders.

My Experience

I have more than 14 years of experience leading advocacy campaigns and advising companies on policy and regulatory strategy at EU level, as well as at federal and local levels in Belgium.

A core strength of my profile is my extensive experience in EU trade policy. I have a background at the European Commission’ DG Trade and at the Belgian Permanent Representation to the EU.
