KBC Group NV
Jan 2015 - presentOperational Information Architect
In this role I envision the future evolution of the Group reporting platform. The vision is translated into guiding principles and applied to ongoing projects and programmes. With the business architects of the "customer domains" we provide steering, for which I organize and coordinate a weekly Architecture Board.
As representative of the Architecture Board I'm active in a number of steering committees and the single point of contact towards a.o. the Design Board, which provides steering for implementation related matters.
I'm involved in (the implementation of) new and changed products and their related business processes, where I coordinate within the Data Quality directorate and
KBC Group NV
Jan 2012 - Dec 2014Project Leader
As Project Leader in the Group Risk directorate, I was responsible for coordinating and delivering
multiple projects with a direct contribution to the risk calculations (Basel II / III, ALM, Liquidity (LCR, NFSR), ...)
and risk and liquidity reporting for the KBC Group.
This entailed communication with the different Risk Measurement Expert Groups,
negotiations with ICT, coordination with multiple business teams, follow-up during implementation, continuous budget control
and effective change management to ensure the project results were well integrated with the standing organization.
The projects reported directly to the General Manager of Group Risk.
KBC Global Services NV (subsidiary of KBC Group NV)
Sep 2008 - Dec 2011System administrator, functional analyst, lead analyst
During these three years, I was working in the ICT department servicing KBC's Group Risk directorate. In a rapid succession and with some overlap I was assigned the roles of system administrator, security admin, functional analyst and prestudy analyst. When a large programme was started up to coordinate investments in an overhaul of risk related systems, I was re-assigned from maintenance to projects, which gave me the opportunity to grow to the position of lead analyst in the project team.

Universiteit Gent
July 2008Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) - formerly known as: burgerlijk ingenieur (ir.)
The master's degree boosted my skillset in the field of ict hardware and software. I used this time to specialise myself in software architecture and expert design, but took advantage of optional courses to broaden my knowledge of project management and business topics:
- Project Management
- ICT and Technology Management
- Introduction to Belgian business law
- Introduction to Financial and cost price reporting
- Introduction to Accounting
Universiteit Gent
July 2006Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSE) - formerly known as: kandidaat burgerlijk ingenieur
The bachelor's degree lays the foundations of the future master engineer: starting with a sturdy base of mathematics, one adds layers of theoretical and practical physics and sprinkles some economics and ict on top. Keep the pressure on for three years, and the rest is chemistry.
Professional, extracurricular
Even when the job doesn't require me to get hands-on with code or set-up, I still pursue opportunities when I see them. In that spirit I have implemented the following tools at KBC outside my normal job description:
- An in-house developed Data Quality Suite (Java) with a web-based front-end (PHP). Over the course of the three years it has been in active use, it has proven its substantial added value. The impressive cost/benefit ratio triggered General Management to label it one of the best business cases of 2014. The solution is now being internationally rolled out and has become the main tool for a dedicated data quality task force.
- A web-based group-wide knowledge sharing initiative (wiki) I started up with some volunteers. It has been picked up by multiple teams in multiple departments as main knowledge sharing platform. International interest in the system (and its thousands of pages of easily searcheable information) has been roused. The cost was kept to a minimum by using a whole stack of free (and mostly open source) software (WikiMedia).
