Bio
Gerry Van Aken
Selma has been a great asset in my team at LeasePlan Belgium. With her proactive and customer focussed mindset, she takes up marketing projects with speed while always searching for disruptive approaches. She has eye for detail, is result-driven, analytical with a great strategic mind. She has proven to be a real marketing champion, and even helped us win our first campaign award within the LeasePlan network. On top Selma has a positive mindset and is a real team player.
Xander Zwaaf
Selma is the complete marketer you desperately need in your team. She combines strategic thinking with an incredible eye for detail, for example when it comes to copywriting for campaigns. She can create propositions, very large international and very targeted campaigns, host workshops and organise a kick-ass event. She masters multiple languages which have proved to be very useful, especially when having to deal with an international, Dutch, French and Belgian target audience. But above all, Selma is a colleague, a friend and a human being, you can ALWAYS count on. I have enjoyed working with Selma and hope to be working with her again sometime in the future.
