After working in a hospital for 5 years delivering innovation and connecting medical equipment to IT, I was ready for a new challenge.

A good friend of mine had joined Avanade when they opened their Netherlands office. Around the same time that I needed a change, he reached out to tell me more about the company. After a short introduction, I was interested. Following my interview with the General Manager it was clear to me that Avanade was the company where I would make the next step in my career.

Being close to Microsoft and having a great group of colleagues - not only in my region, but spread over the world - I benefit from the experience and knowledge of +29,000 talented professionals who are all just one Skype chat or call away. The accessibility to a brilliant network of peers gives me confidence at the client site should I need support.

Working on information and communications technologies (ICT), it’s 80% working with people and 20% technology – a great balance for my career. Avanade has been the perfect fit for me, which is why I’ve built my career here. We are a people-focused company delivering great technology in the digital area and elevating how we connect with people around the world.
