Daan is an extremely bright person, with great ideas for providing solutions to problems. He is a team player, very focused on delivering business results across the company, taking ownership and accountability over the projects he is involved in. His technical background and digital savviness completes his package.

He is that proactive colleague from the other department you would always want to work with when you have a critical task or project you need to get done !

Daan is great. Professional, dedicated, focused, loyal and delivers what he says he will on time with high quality. Daan has a good balance of knowledge between commercial + technology and is very well suited for a product, commercial or communications role within a Digital or Technology oriented function.

I will probably try to steal Daan from wherever he’s working in the next Digital/Technology team I build

Having worked with Daan while I was heading the Operating company comms function and then having worked with him directly while st VEON I found Daan to display 2 key professional characteristics – teamwork and a can-do attitude.

No task is too difficult or impossible for this digital and comms professional. From designing the future roadmap of the group corporate engagement platform or finalizing negotiations on a comms delivery tool, Daan would work towards finding a solution that was beneficial to both client and customer. Also his exposure to a multicultural environment makes him suitable to work in dynamic and growing enterprise.

He performs well under pressure situations and thrives in both a structured and unstructured work environment. The transformation at VEON allowed him to exceed expectations on all his tasks and objectives while I worked with him throughout 2017. I believe he would be an asset to any company that he works in.

Daan is an incredibly dedicated, proactive and effective person to work with. Working with Daan has been great, as you can always rely on him to do the job well and help you on anything you need. No problem is unsolvable for him.

Was very happy to work with Daan on numerous projects that he really helped to take further every time.

When it comes to getting the job done, Daan is the man! I’ve hadthe pleasure of working with Daan on several projects, including arebranding and a couple app launches. I am always impressed by Daan’s eagerness to find solutions to the toughest of problems, I admire how he solves the trickiest issues with such ease.

I have worked with Daan on several digital communication projects for the Global Veon Group.

Daan is a true communications specialist that stands out with his great vision and professionalism. I was impressed by his achievements and the way he can work on all levels of the organisation to achieve the ambitious goals he sets for himself and the entire group. Daan has the ability to use new technology swiftly, adopt to ever changing needs and set the pace for others to follow.

He has an amazing drive and passion for his projects and is otherwise just a great guy to work with.

Daan was part of the social media journey at KPN in his role as Social Insights Analyst, working with eg. Salesforce Radian6.

His role was vital in defining and implementing a key metrics framework and translating the framework into reporting and actionable insights. Based on which we could direct and improve the webcare organization as a whole.

He’s an amiable guy, good team player and a pleasure to work with!

Daan was part of my team at KPN, responsible for social reporting, providing structural and incidental in-depth social analysis, and connecting available social data to relevant customer data.

Daan was also active as analyst, looking for ways to optimize our social operation. I know Daan as a extremely dedicated professional, with great passion for his job and responsibilities. Daan is the type of guy that gets an answer before you have even asked him the question.

Next to that, Daan is fun to work with, also a great team player, always looking for ways to get our team performance on a higher level.

It is rare that you come across standout talent like Daan.

I got to know Daan when he applied with us for the job of Webcare agent. Already within a few months he showed he was capable of so much more. His analytical skills are outstanding and he understands the art of communication. I am particularly impressed by the way he is able to adjust in every group.

Without any doubt or nerves he is able to present to the board of directors and manages to level with them in a natural way. He earned great respect within our organization by not only doing this with the board of directors but with lots of others. He and his remarkable curly hear will be missed once he leaves our department. Not only because of the fact that whenever there is a technical problem we immediately turn to Daan.

And I for one hope to work with him for many years to come. But I know you have got to let them go, unfortunately. If you’re the one thinking about hiring him, don’t hesitate. You won’t regret it.

Bij KPN heb ik twee jaar samengewerkt met Daan. Hij is van unieke waarde in elk team: Daan doorziet complexiteit snel, legt verrassende verbanden, denkt buiten traditionele kaders en is een pragmaticus – niet vanzelfsprekend voor iemand die dagelijks met abstracte data en informatiesystemen werkt.

De oplossingen die hij aandraagt zijn zonder uitzondering efficiënt en getuigen van zijn goede gevoel voor innovatie, waarbij hij te allen tijde oog heeft voor de relevantie van zijn ideeën ten opzichte van de bedrijfsdoelen.

Daan verraste mij vaak: hij was vaak al twee stappen verder dan ik iedereen dacht en geeft daarbij blijk dat zorgvuldig handelen wel degelijk kan zonder ´scope screep´ in een project. Vindt ook makkelijk zijn weg in een matrixorganisatie, en werkt succesvol en zonder ingewikkeld gedoe samen met collega´s uit alle echelons. Daan is duidelijk intelligent, maakt zich dingen snel eigen. Een zeer sociale collega met een prettig karakter die op eigen initiatief altijd dat stapje extra zet in de samenwerking.

Ik durf te stellen dat iedere organisatie zich mag verheugen om hem in dienst te hebben, omdat sommige collega´s nu eenmaal van grotere meerwaarde zijn dan de middenmoot.. en Daan steekt er met kop en schouders bovenuit!
