Bio
Kristien Vertessen
I had the pleasure of working with Els from the moment I joined Bose. From day 1 Els proved to be a very devoted colleague with lots of knowledge not only about here subjects, but even so outside the finance world. More then once I had valuable discussions on customs or compliance project with here. She was always available to support me or the other colleagues in the Staff group. But, not only for that she is highly respected in our Staff group. Els is a passionate about here work and is not afraid to give that extra push to get things done. Here can-do attitude, team building skills & competence to speak with all levels, will be a huge asset for any company that will hire here.

I worked closely with Els for many years during my time at Bose. Els is hardworking, passionate, and a great colleague. I had the opportunity to relocate to Europe from the United States, and she was very welcoming as we worked out of the same office. Els does not shy away from difficult challenges, but rather faces them heads on. She has a broad breadth of experience that allows her to speak to many different aspects of the business. If there was one consistent thread from all of those who have worked with Els, I believe it would be that she always had the company’s best interest in mind. Given this truth, having the difficult conversations with Els were easy, as you could trust she was coming from the right place. I was able to learn a great deal from Els and would highly recommend her.
