About Geert

I'm an accomplished senior commercial professional with extensive experience across multiple fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sectors. My background spans Confectionery, Dairy, Health Food & Beverage (including plant-based and carbonated drinks), Hygiene, Personal Care, and Household categories. Having held pivotal roles at market leaders such as PepsiCo, FrieslandCampina, Reckitt and Danone, I possess a deep understanding of commercial policy, go-to-market strategies, and relationship management.

I am highly proficient in Key Account, Sales, Team, Category & Revenue Management and am a seasoned expert in complex customer negotiations. Known for my pragmatic, "walk the talk" approach and a resilient can-do mentality, I thrive in action-oriented corporate cultures and always act with purpose. Given my broad category expertise and proven commercial track record, I believe I am an excellent bridger for the open gap in your organisation.
