Bio
Laurence Strecker
I have worked with Jurgen for several years. Jurgen has very strong business acumen, an impressive external network and is a great leader. He was the main driver for the business performances in the NL. He is very result driven, very close to the business and also a great connecter. I really loved working with him thanks to his knowledge but also his passion for the business.
Wim Schipper
Jurgen is a results driven professional who drove our JNJ strategies into optimum sales in the 5 years I have worked with him. As a Customer Development Manager MASS Benelux I would happily have Jurgen back in the organization due to his ability to be a great leader including his attention to the customer needs, his creativity, as well as people manager. He truly has a strong understanding of the fast moving consumer goods business in the food and drug channel including new distribution area’s e.g. low end retail. I would highly recommend Jurgen.
