• Safeguard quality, client satisfaction and the growth of this domain.
  

Build strong client relationships

• Help organisations evolve POCs into scalable, valueadding implementations.
  

Take endtoend ownership

• Experience in building or growing teams, services or capabilities.

• Excellent communication skills with both business and technical stakeholders.

• A Master’s degree in (Business) Engineering, Economics or a related field.

• Fluency in Dutch and English.

What You Can Expect

• A highly entrepreneurial team where initiative truly matters.
