Peter Baan

I have been working for Eclectic for almost 22 years. A question during my job interview ‘what do I
do after 10.30 am’ turned out to be unnecessary. Never a dull moment, always new challenges and
projects.

Started with small administration and now responsible for everything related to Finance. Since April
1st, 2021, promoted to Director Finance and Operations, also responsible for managing the team. A
great step and challenge.

During my 25 years of training and coaching football teams, managing a team is the best thing I have
learned. At work it’s not that different. Putting everyone in the right position and in their power.
Motivating people, giving them confidence. Who needs a pat on the head and who needs a kick in
the ass. I learned it in private and can now apply it at Eclectic. Working together with the team on
growth. Giving responsibility and consultation, but also making decisions yourself if the votes are
tied. With Koen as a sparring partner when I come across things that are new or when I have doubts
about an approach.

In addition to work and football, there is also my private life. Doing things together with Anja, eating
out, traveling (if it’s possible again). There are too little hours within a week.
