Let's get in touch:

Today

After nearly two decades of leading large-scale organizational transformation in senior HR roles at Unilever, Jille decided in 2020 it was time for a new chapter. Driven by a deep belief in lifelong learning and a passion for leadership development, he returned to university to qualify as an executive team coach.

Following his certification, he launched his own coaching and HR consulting company. But he quickly discovered that lasting impact is rarely achieved alone: you can go fast alone, but you go further together.

Inspired by the Business Markers approach, and energized by the expertise and entrepreneurial spirit of its partners and consultants, Jille co-founded Business Markers Netherlands in 2022, where he now serves as Managing Partner and Managing Director.

 

What's typical about Jille?

Jille is known for his strong “can-do” mindset, high energy, and natural drive to make things happen. He is at his best when coaching leadership  teams to unlock their full potential and deliver meaningful results.

Beyond his professional life, Jille is an ambitious and devoted husband and father. He enjoys Formula 1, cooking, hiking, running, and the occasional sunny motorbike ride on his classic Moto Guzzi.

What can Jille mean for you?

Jille helps leaders, teams and organizations grow — by strengthening performance, unlocking potential, and achieving measurable results.

He combines a warm and supportive coaching style with the courage to challenge where needed. With a strong systems-thinking mindset, he connects the dots between strategy, culture, leadership and execution.

Jille firmly believes in the principle of “stronger together” — and helps people build the trust, clarity and momentum to make that real.
