About Annelies
I help organisations translate strategy into structured execution.
With over 20 years of experience across finance (ING), retail (Colruyt Group), and technology (Esri), I act as a bridge between business and implementation. I bring clarity to complex environments, align stakeholders, and ensure initiatives move from business case to tangible results.
I typically support organisations with strategic programs, cross-functional transformation projects, governance design, and business–IT alignment. I am used to operating without formal hierarchy, influencing senior stakeholders, and keeping multiple workstreams on track while safeguarding scope, budget, timing and benefits.
I work remote-first and am available for part-time or fractional assignments where structure, oversight and strategic execution are needed.
