Introducing Stijn Bazuin

Nice to meet you

My name is Stijn Bazuin. I will turn 28 this month. Since 2,5 years I am working with HEC as an account manager. My main focus in the Southern European market plus the United Kingdom.

My passion for my job started actually at a very young age, where I was busy making new friends and try to make them happy. Nowadays this is still the case, I am satisfied when our business partners get the most suitable material for their production process delivered to them in time.

During my study Commercial Economics at the University of applied Sciences in Nijmegen I learned to convert my natural drive to make people happy to my employment. This drive is the reason why I chose to work for HEC. I feel that my way of work directly aligns with the vision of HEC, to build long term durable relationships rather than only transactional relationships.

Next to my job my hobbies are playing field hockey and have some drinks and food with my friends. I live together with my girlfriend, with whom I am together now for almost 8 years.

I would like to thank you for taking the time to read my introduction. If you have questions after reading this article or any other business related questions, please feel free to contact me. You can connect with me on Linkedin or get in contact with our team.

Kind regards,

Stijn

Introducing Nicole Brockötter

HEC-Holland team member – Who am I?

My name is Nicole Brockötter; I am 51 years old and live in a small town called Duiven, nearby Arnhem.

About 10 years ago, I started working at HEC-Holland as a Commercial Assistant. After a few years of experience in this position I was promoted to Account Manager. In this role, I am responsible for the Benelux and the German market.

Being raised as a german bi-lingual is a huge advantage in this field. It allows me to communicate with customers in their own language.

Genuine interest in others and humour go hand in hand with me. As a result, I like to make contact and get energy from maintaining and expanding my network. I believe I have an eye for detail, a passion for representing my job and like to share my knowledge with others.

It’s all about bringing real value to both parties and the best way to do this is by building strong and long-lasting partnerships through reliability and in-depth knowledge of markets, products and customers situation.

I see myself as an outgoing, open minded, spontaneous, and loyal person who likes to achieve goals and building relationships with colleagues and customers.

Besides work, I enjoy going out with my daughter, friends, and family. I live together with my daughter and our animal friends Shiva, a French Bulldog; and my 2 cats Cooper and Schimanski. Furthermore, a glass of wine and a nice meal in a fancy restaurant won’t be turned down from my side.

Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn; or by phone or email.

Introducing Stephan de Blauw

The HEC-Holland team keeps on growing. In May we welcomed our newest team member Stephan de Blauw. He will be working as our new Account Manager. We are happy to introduce him to you in the following article.

HEC-Holland new team member – Who am I?

Hello everyone, my name is Stephan de Blauw. I am 24 years old, living in Veenendaal but moving to Driebergen soon. In Driebergen my girlfriend and I found a cozy apartment, in which we are going to live together. In April I finished my bachelor of Commercial Economics and graduated at the University of Applied Sciences Arnhem and Nijmegen.

I would describe myself as an spontaneous, ambitious and loyal person who likes to achieve goals with others. I also enjoy building relationships with colleagues, customers and potential customers. Both of these things I started doing the day I arrived at HEC and I am for sure going to continue a lot more within the coming years. Besides work I enjoy playing and watching football (a lot), playing videogames with friends and chilling with friends (and maybe have a few beers).

My role within the HEC-team

My role within HEC will be Account Manager for a not yet specified area. In the coming months I will firstly work on my product and company knowledge, which is necessary to serve customers well. I’m doing this by helping out my colleagues and taking over the test cases. Gradually, I will also take over customers of my colleagues to make sure every customer gets the attention they deserve.

Thoughts for the future

Before I started here I never looked into the cable industry, but I was familiar with a quite similar infrastructure industry. Therefore, I think I will learn fast and I will make sure I’ll be ready to answer all of your questions as soon as possible. I am really looking forward to get to know the company better and more importantly get in touch with all of you.

In the meantime, feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn and/ or Xing and if you really can’t wait to meet me; just give me a call.

If any questions arise, you can also get in contact with our team!
