I joined the Cookson Group in 1998 from UCB (Belgian Company) where I held a corporate development function.
After 2 years at the Cookson London headquarters involved in mergers & acquisitions, I moved to Poland as Vesuvius general manager in charge of the integration of Skawina Refractory.
In 2006, I returned to the Brussels headquarters with the responsability of creating the Vesuvius Corporate purchasing function. More recently I was in charge of the integration of Foseco into Vesuvius for Europe, Middle East and Africa.
I hold a master degree in business management from the Free University of Brussels (Solvay Business School).
In my free time, I like being with my wife and three children playing tennis and skiing.
