Femke Valk, Manager Corporate Development & Marketing at Iv: "We worked very well with Marius. Marius greatly assisted me in setting up the new brand strategy, accompanying content strategy, and rebranding. He produced our new tagline: engineering that excites, which is fully embraced by the entire organization. Quite a challenge. He and our technical partner also implemented Microsoft's marketing automation system for us. In short: Marius is pleasant to work with and has excellent knowledge of marketing, strategy, content strategy, and marketing automation. Absolute professional!”
Henry Staal, co-CEO of Myne: “Marius is an experienced, energetic sparring partner with a strong network and a go-getter attitude, both strategically and operationally.”
Elisa Maira, Ph.D., UX Research Lead at Bol.com: "I had the luck of working closely with Marius during his twelve months at Ortec Finance and would not hesitate for a second to recommend him as a great addition to any marketing team. Marius is professional, hardworking, and extremely knowledgeable in the domains of branding and communications. I liked collaborating with him because he is a very good team player and very open to the exchange of feedback and perspective. On a more personal level, it was easy for me to connect with Marius as he is nice to talk to and easygoing. Will miss him in our team!"
Godert Burghard, CCO at Ortec Finance: "Marius is a no-nonsense and down-to-earth senior marketing professional. He is able to look at typical marketing challenges from all angles, make decisions quickly (and explain why) and execute on those. He has performed several MarCom roles for complex solutions and successfully managed a massive international corporate marketing project. If you need a pro with cultural awareness of your company's culture, stop looking. You've just found him."
Andrew Berkhout, Managing Director at Greenwheels International: "Marius has a 'make-it-happen' mentality that goes hand in hand with a smile and a lot of energy; he does not just talk about something but puts in the work. He doesn't settle for good enough; it must be perfect. He also has an admirable openness to new ideas and knows how to enthuse colleagues."
Glenn Ouëndag, Founder at Brandofvalue: "Marius is original and creative in his approach and ensures that objectives are met. Marius is not afraid to break through existing patterns if that can lead to a solution. His skill set encompasses all disciplines that are required to use resources and channels successfully and consistently to achieve the best results."
Arnold Birkhoff, Partner at Kneppelhout Law Firm: "The best thing about Marius is that he is highly efficient when it comes to what has to be done to face the (future) challenges of an organization. He once said, "even a bad strategy could work, if properly executed" – I guess that sums him up; putting in the work to make it work. Marius has a unique and fresh perspective, and therefore colleagues saw Marius as a versatile professional."
