Experienced professional in technical application and system management, with a background spanning maritime and financial sectors. Specialised in payments infrastructure, financial applications and Azure cloud migrations.
Over the course of more than 25 years I have worked across a range of industries, with a particular focus on financial services. My work centres on managing complex application landscapes, maintaining critical infrastructure and supporting organisations through technical transitions — from vendor handovers to full cloud migrations. I find it important to communicate clearly with both technical teams and business stakeholders, and I take ownership of assignments from start to finish.
Managing complex application landscapes in regulated environments. Taking ownership of systems — including during handovers without formal transition — and ensuring continuity through solid documentation and stakeholder alignment.
Planning and executing on-premise to Azure migrations, including server domain migrations (450+ servers), ERP implementations on Azure, and database migrations from Oracle to SQL. Focus on minimal disruption to business operations.
Hands-on experience managing SWIFT Alliance, TRAX, treasury management systems and dealing room platforms. Coordinating with data vendors such as Reuters and Bloomberg, and running annual BCP and disaster recovery exercises.
Built up over a long career across finance, maritime and IT services — a working knowledge of the tools that keep complex application landscapes running.
A few things that keep me busy away from the keyboard.
Available for technical application management and Azure cloud migration assignments, primarily in the financial sector. Based in Rotterdam, open to assignments across the Netherlands.
