What drives you in your work? What gives you energy?
What drives me is building the company and creating value. At BARENTSZEN GROUP, many elements converge: international projects, strategy, and people. I particularly gain energy from situations that appear complex, which we then manage to transform into a concrete result as a team.
What inspires you in your collaboration with colleagues or clients?
For me, collaboration is about trust, openness, and ambition. I prefer working with people who take responsibility, show initiative, and want to build something together that is greater than individual interests. Regarding clients, I believe it is important that we are not just a supplier, but a true partner. It gives me great satisfaction when we can collectively elevate a project and provide the client with complete peace of mind.
Which ‘project’ has stayed with you the most? And why?
The projects that stay with me most, from my perspective of financial oversight, are usually those that seem almost impossible at first glance. For example, international events where logistics, timing, and expectations must align perfectly. When it ultimately succeeds and everything falls into place, it provides an enormous amount of energy.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time? OR What do we not yet know about you?
In my spare time, I am very involved in sports, even if you might not immediately think so…. Boxing is a great way for me to clear my head and stay sharp. Additionally, I can often be found at the show jumping arenas, as my daughter is active in equestrian show jumping.
