Esther van Opstal new director of HRM
As of 1 January 2022 Esther van Opstal will be our new HRM director, a role that will be held ad interim by Heleen Cocu-Wassink.
Esther van Opstal studied movement sciences and work and organisational psychology at VU Amsterdam. During her career she has held various management and HR roles at different (international) organisations such as Delta Lloyd, DLA Piper, Nationale Nederlanden and ING. She is enthusiastic about moving from the service sector to higher education because of the social importance of education, now and in the future.
Van Opstal will start getting to know the organisation and her new colleagues from 1 December. As HRM director she hopes to contribute to a safe and free learning and work environment at the University
