Working on the future of Schiphol and its other airports inspires me in my day-to-day work, and allows me to use my knowledge and expertise. I’m challenged by finding a balance between society’s increasing needs for mobility, sustainability and capacity.

Being always connected to daily dynamics gives me energy.

I work as a Strategic Advisor, and my work brings me into contact with many departments at Schiphol. It's great to know that my colleagues are open to new ideas, and I also learn a lot from all aviation knowledge and experience that is present at Schiphol. Schiphol is a tremendously inspiring work environment. Even though my work is more geared toward long term goals, I always stay connected to the daily dynamics. This gives me the energy to work well with my colleagues to ensure that we remain Schiphol Europe's Preferred Airport!
