Bio
Linda Eikelenboom
I got to know Reidar as a serious, hard working and committed controller with a common-sense attitude and a very good understanding of the business. He took on the job fluently and was easily able to translate the figures into business. He is able to move across cultural boundaries with ease. Although he can also be firm when he needs to, it is a pleasure to be working with Reidar. Also later we worked closely together in difficult circumstances were Reidar demonstrated his common-sense attitude and his hands-on approach.
