About

Let's discuss your challenges or just share ideas on interesting life- and business topics. Intl. experienced professional, looking for a challenge. Recently worked on a German/Dutch project for a BPO. Fast available for a matching opportunity. Sold BPO projects and worked in them. I am a strong individual- and team contributor comfortable speaking 4+ languages, including Dutch, English, German, French and Flemish. Willing to take on any challenge where I can use one- or more of my capabilities and help you grow by revenue-. new ideas and customer experience. A range of capabilities are on offer and qualify for a variety of roles at every level. My Motivation will always be maximum as I will always strive for the best. I have been fortunate to work with- and in companies and agencies going through start-up- growth- and change- pains: companies like Formula1, Orange, Google, SAP, Microsoft, Diageo, KLM airlines, Accenture, LVMH, and many more. Most needed a “doctor” specialised in creating fast results and change with right processes and in need of a sound helicopter view. I made a short sidestep due to illness of my mother-in-law and managed our B&B/bar in Portugal (La Rampa) -April 2024- which was closed last January due to bad investment and variables beyond control. I made the decision to relocate back where my kids reside. Which basically is my personal goal and driver. As an individual contributor I offer you fast and increasing results, above average and will add creative ideas and a good team spirit. I am used to work with clients, partners and network at all levels. Master of analysis and detail plus know getting to the right contacts and personalise each experience using the right tools and experience. Confident to work with Oracle, Hubspot, Salesforce, Zendesk, SAP, Dynamics, Linkedin SN.. I will perform and/or lead by example with my ankles in the mud! I need an opportunity to rock, I will not disappoint you.

Bluefort is a Microsoft Partner who is new to the end-user market and has technical knowledge in the Microsoft stack particularly in the Dynamics space. The ultimate dream for Bluefort is to deliver business solutions directly to end clients in the Mediterranean area. As contractor I help Bluefort with selling Bluefort as a partner to end-users. Bluefort needs a kickstart in Dynamics 365 sales, sell their first end-user project and establish partnerships with other European Microsoft partners to share best practices, learn and share technical staff. Individual contributor & team. Growth limitations. The growth I created/wanted was not achievable at that moment due to company limitations
