Our work revolves around technology. But there’s one other crucial element: stakeholder management. Landowners, local communities and public authorities all have their own needs and wishes. I build bridges between them while safeguarding our business interests. The key to success? Knowing where people are coming from, making sure they understand you and – crucially – gaining their trust.

Job

I’m in charge of securing permit applications for BESS projects. Internal and external stakeholder management, studies, reports, permit processes: it’s all in a day’s work. Together with our technical team, I also set up projects in the Netherlands and internationally.
