I am an interim consultant specialised in internal audit services with more than 15 years’ experience. I have done everything from SOx implementations and testing business controls and ITGC’s, to IT and operational audits, to setting up an internal audit function, to implementing internal control frameworks based on COSO, ITIL and COBIT.
I started my career as a rock guitarist, but soon realised that auditing is more my thing. I received my BSc. from Haarlem Business School, my MSc. from University of Amsterdam, my executive master in Finance and Control from Nyenrode Business University and also my executive master in Internal Auditing from Amsterdam Business School. Also obtained the CIA and CISA certification.
After starting with different positions in financial services, I joined PwC Risk Assurance. After that I joined Rabobank as a controller, before starting my own consulting firm.
Actual experience has taught me that my professional values boil down to the following:
– Analytical
– Good listener
– Ambitious
– I am the calm one
Besides all of this, I enjoy running, scuba diving and reading. And I am a husband and father of Sophie, who will be a great rock guitarist one day.
