Senior Manager

My primary role is to guide and mentor Junior Business Managers to help them achieve their goals and reach their full potential. I lead a team of talented consultants and guide them through complex projects, fostering their growth, and ensuring we deliver exceptional value to our clients. Additionally, I actively participate in the board to contribute to the company’s strategic decisions.

My journey at Avertim has been an incredibly enriching one, shaped by continuous learning, growth, and the unwavering support of a company that truly values its people. Starting my career as a consultant, I had the opportunity to explore diverse sectors over four years, honing my expertise and building strong foundations as Project Manager in Digital. Transitioning into a Business Manager role was a pivotal moment, allowing me to combine my technical knowledge with leadership and strategic thinking.

What I value the most about Avertim is the culture of support and ambition. From the beginning, Avertim recognized my aspirations and provided me with the tools, mentorship, and opportunities to achieve them. This environment has not only empowered me to grow as a leader but also instilled a deep sense of responsibility to create the same supportive atmosphere for my team.

I strongly believe in the power of a humane and collaborative workplace, where people feel valued, encouraged, and inspired to thrive. At Avertim, it’s a shared commitment that has defined my journey and continues to drive my energy for what I do every day.

I am responsible for growing and strengthening our Life Sciences activities in Belgium, working at the intersection of strategy, people, and operations. 

My role is built around three core pillars: 

Driving business growth & partnerships
I focus on developing new client relationships while deepening existing partnerships. By doing so, I actively contribute to our Business Unit and sector strategy, ensuring strong alignment with Avertim’s Curie‑osity 2028 ambitions and the broader group objectives. The goal is clear: create sustainable value for our clients and position Avertim as a trusted long‑term partner in Life Sciences. 

Leading and developing people
People are at the heart of everything we do. I am closely involved in the recruitment of high‑quality consultants and in supporting their career development, performance evaluations, and long‑term growth. Together with the business team, I strive to create an environment where consultants can thrive, take ownership and continuously evolve, both professionally and personally. 

Contributing internally
In addition to my operational responsibilities, I am actively involved in Business Unit and corporate initiatives. This includes supporting strategy development at BU level and acting as Business Support Lead for our Life Sciences Community as well as our BPM/OPEX practice, helping shape our offerings and internal ways of working. 

A career built on growth
Since joining Avertim, my journey has evolved significantly. I started as a consultant to truly understand our clients, the market, and the operational reality. From there, I moved into successive roles as Business Manager, Manager, and today Senior Manager with step driven by impact, ownership, and increasing responsibility. 

This growth path reflects what Avertim stands for: trust, tailored development, and long-term career support. Through a combination of personalized coaching and targeted training programs (both hard and soft skills), I was able to grow in line with my ambitions. 

Why Avertim?
What I value most about Avertim is our unique balance. We are small enough to maintain a warm, personal, and accessible culture, yet large enough to offer a wide variety of challenging and exciting projects across a diverse client portfolio. 

Our culture is open and collaborative. Consultants are encouraged to actively contribute to communities, practices, and service lines, sharing ideas and expertise in an environment built on respect, trust, and collective learning. 

Maintaining a close connection with my consultants is essential to me. Through regular touchpoints, we discuss project experiences, challenges, career aspirations and most importantly how their holidays were.  

What makes us different
Avertim stands out through its distinct market positioning: we build the bridge between strategy and operations, foster long‑term partnerships, invest deeply in personalized career development, and always act with sustainability in mind, for our people, our clients, and society. 

That combination is what makes our journey both meaningful and future‑proof.
