      • May 2022 - Present

      Given the current business environment, HR leaders and their teams are being challenged as never before to create new strategies in order to ensure their organizations are prepared to meet current and future business needs. Throughout my career as an attorney and more specifically in my role as HR Manager, I have established a very good understanding on what the business expects from HR, in combination with a very clear understanding of Belgian employment law and its complexity. Companies want pragmatic and hands-on approaches with proven practices to mitigate people and company risk. My role as Executive Director at EY Law is to support companies as a trusted advisor with their human capital challenges and opportunities. Together with my team, we partner with our clients to drive successful business and HR outcomes. Show less
