His approach has led to significant improvements in efficiency, productivity and overall organisational performance for our client.

Niels’ contribution to the transformation project we showcased to GPA was invaluable. His insights and ability to harness the capability of each project team member was a key to success. Niels effectively encouraged collaboration through his cross-functional project team, whilst also bringing external stakeholders along for the journey. He spearheaded the implementation of the Time and Attendance and Payroll system, delivering accuracy, efficiency and streamlining critical operational processes. By leveraging data-driven decision-making, Niels empowered our client to adapt swiftly to changing project and operational dynamics.
