Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I ran my own communications agency for twenty years and have extensive experience in B2B. I give companies more visibility, help build their positive reputation, and communicate the right message to various target groups (and prompt them to take action where necessary).

After reviewing existing communications, I develop the communication strategy, always aligning it with the business strategy. I am accustomed to working in a multichannel environment (web, social media, press, etc.). I can also handle content creation in various formats (web text, social media, video, brochure text, press releases, white papers, annual reports, etc.). With my knowledge of ESG and CSRD, I can also handle sustainability communication (internal workshops, external communication, reporting, etc.) and combat greenwashing and greenhushing.

January 2003 - May 2024 (21 years and 4 months)
Ghent, Belgium
With ten years of agency experience, I started my own communications agency in 2004. I began with the press relations for Essent Belgium and ratiopharm. Soon, I was able to expand my activities to the full spectrum of corporate communication, including investor relations. Therefore, I have extensive experience with both communication strategy and its implementation. This naturally includes content creation in all sorts of formats. In my business development, I always approached sustainable organizations (green energy, generic medicines, microfinance, indigenous soybeans, biological pesticides, recycling, etc.).
