C.E.O. / Managing director

Work Experience

As an independant consultant since 1996, I'm about to finish (fine-tuning) the restructuration of a important Belgian industrial group (with a subsidiary in the NL) which activities are related to industrial automation and processes.

The group was composed out of different subsidiaries, holding and management companies, some of them have been created or acquired, others have merged, one has been shut down and another sold. We had production & sales activities with connection to major industrial actors in Northern Europe but also in the U.S. and Japan.

I've settled long lasting shareholders' disputes, operational activities have been turned profitable (incl. mission statement etc.) and the real-estate patrimonium has been secured.

As Managing director I have been responsible for the coordination and implementation of the decisions and recommendations of the Board.

As General manager I have been responsible for coaching the sales, technical and financial managers, budgets & monthly reportings, legal matters, relations with major suppliers, customers, banks, trade unions etc. plus ultimate operational commitments and decisions.

Before this I have been sales manager, ISO 9001 manager and responsible for the EC norms. As Sales Manager I've been in charge of optimising the allocation of resources, working on the consistency of the sales forces and product lines and coaching the sales representatives.

I have also had a couple of mandates as Member of the Board in other companies.
