As assistant to the Managing Director, I make sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. I manage his calendar, take care of administrative tasks, and plan meetings and travel with precision, so he can stay focused on leading the company. I’m also responsible for coordinating and following up on governance bodies such as the Works Council, Board of Directors, and General Council.
If you ever need my help, I’m just a message away. I’ll be happy to find the information you need, as quickly as possible.

Work experience
For nearly 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with our Managing Director, Herman. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of his priorities and working style, allowing me to anticipate his needs and ensure his schedule flows efficiently. At Sirris, I coordinate key governance meetings from planning to follow-up and ensure everything runs seamlessly in the background — enabling him to devote his energy to guiding the company’s next steps.

Fun fact
My days are filled with planning and coordination. At work and with friends, I’m known for keeping everything running like clockwork. But when the day is done, I unwind by dancing it out. Zumba is my perfect reset.
