Hello, I'm Catelijne E.
During my career, I have worked as Head of Legal or General Counsel for several companies and the wide variety of responsibilities I covered during my career are experiences that could come to use for any international company. My previous positions have provided me with relevant working experience in an international commercial law environment within international operating companies providing services in various sectors. I am a pragmatic service orientated professional and trusted advisor to the business and executives with a strategic view. I am very pragmatic and in many circumstances over the past years, I have been able to show my creativity and flexibility to come up with non-typical solutions enabling a situation to move forward. I am capable to quickly adjust to new situations and absorb the required information in order to provide assistance and start identifying risks and challenges and creating legal strategies, policies and procedures and awareness accordingly.
