Specific client experience
- Family Businesses: As a Family Business market leader, I have extensive experience working for family businesses in a variety of industries, for example, Transportation & Logistics and wholesale. The characteristic when working for family businesses is that in addition to focusing on the business (the business aspects), attention must also be paid to the vision, emotions and relationships within the family. Together with the accountants, tax specialists, other advisors and lawyers, I strive to identify the risks, propose and implement solutions to ensure the continuity of the family business and harmony within the family. Check our website for more information on Family Businesses.
- Transport & Logistics: I also have extensive specific experience with companies in the Transport & Logistics sector, such as road transport, forwarding agents, shipbrokers, shipping and shipbuilding, storage and transshipment, and customs services. In the Transport & Logistics sector, a broad view, adaptability and flexibility are essential to survive and respond to continuous change. I alert our clients and relations to relevant developments and risks and help them think about how to respond to these. By combining my knowledge and creativity into workable solutions, pleasurable positions and completed projects, I go the extra mile for the client.
