Erwin van Lambaart, chair of the BUas Supervisory Board: ‘ We are very happy with Ingrid’s appointment as a member of the BUas Executive Board. We were privileged to have had several strong candidates in the selection procedure. In the end, we chose Ingrid because in recent years she has shown that she is someone who can make a difference, time and again, on the basis of both strategic and substantive considerations. We look forward to her working with Jorrit Snijder to lead our strong international institute in the coming years, giving shape to and implementing our clear BUas+ strategy.’
President of the Executive Board Jorrit Snijder: ‘I am pleased with the addition of Ingrid to the Executive Board and I look forward to our cooperation. Ingrid has highly valuable BUas experience and brings key financial and operations management expertise. As a result, the new Executive Board is again highly complementary in its composition.’
Ingrid about her appointment: ‘I would like to develop further and where better to do so than at the institute I know so well and are so enormously proud of? I am very much looking forward to further cooperation internally and with external BUas contacts and I am highly motivated to contribute, through my new role, to the continued development of BUas+.’
The Executive Board will start the recruitment process for a successor to Ingrid as director of Finance, Control & Student-services this week.
