My drive is to structurally advance organizations in their development in the field of Supply Chain & Operations. More competitive, more sustainable, and future-proof. With a pragmatic, results-oriented approach, I help improve processes, deploy resources more effectively, and reduce waste. Always with an eye on the impact across the entire chain and the interests of the stakeholders involved. The goal: to create sustainable value that extends beyond the boundaries of the organization itself.

Bastiaan brings over 20 years of experience in supply chain and operations. His expertise covers the full spectrum: from planning, logistics, procurement, and production to maintenance. Thanks to his broad background and hands-on experience, he effortlessly translates strategic policy into executable solutions: from the shop floor to the boardroom and back.

He laid the foundation in 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in Logistics & Technical Transportation at the Transport Academy, followed by a Master’s in Operations & Supply Chain at TIAS Business School in 2016. Logistics was instilled in him from an early age. Starting as a production planner in the chemical industry, he moved through retail into roles as supply chain and operations manager in the food sector, then made the switch to services. Since 2022, he has been a partner at ARV Group.

His conviction: safeguard simplicity, aim for short lines of communication, and strengthen collaboration. That is the key to agile, sustainable, and future-proof supply chains.
