I had the pleasure of working with Henk Jan. Henk Jan was challenged to set a foundation for Identity and Access Managent within CarNext. At that moment the business was in the midst of an IT carve out and needed to clean up a lot of legacy before being able to build that foundation. Henk Jan toke on that challenge and rose to the occasion. He was able to act as a program manager, aligning all running initiatives, set priorities in approach, managing internal stakeholders and partners. Henk Jan does what he says he will, will speak his mind and will challenge you and the business in order to get to the best solution. Henk Jan is an authentic, genuine and outspoken character with a wealth of knowledge, expertise and is very committed. It was an absolute pleasure to have Henk Jan as a part of the team and to be able to work with him. I had the pleasure of working with Henk Jan.

I got to know and appreciate Henk as a team member during a critical project in the financial sector (data protection), which I led. He has an exorbitant knowledge of security, processes and programs. Once Henk is involved in a project, he burns for it with his temperament and knowledge. Due to his professional background he is able to successfully design projects in teams of different cultures and regions. Especially international projects with high explosiveness and critical infrastructure are worth mentioning. The cooperation with him was professional and result oriented. I would be happy to work with him on further projects in the future!
