Klaartje

After completing my law studies, I started working at the Trade Union Confederation for Professionals (VCP) in 2009. Right away, I was involved in negotiations on the broad revision of our pension system and the many agreements and advisory reports on pensions that were subsequently concluded at a central level through the SER (Social and Economic Council) or the Labour Foundation with various governments. This included the entire development of the Future of Pensions Act.

I am one of the founders of Pensioenlab, a platform established by trade unions to engage young people in pensions and enhance diversity within pension fund bodies. I now contribute to Pensioenlab from the Advisory Board. Over the years, I have held various governance roles at VCP and have been a member of several SER committees, including the Pension Committee and the Pension Working Group of the Labour Foundation.

Additionally, in my role at VCP, I have always been closely involved with Netspar, participating in the Partner Research Council and the Board of Trustees. I am also a member of ViiP, JIIP, and an affiliated member of AG/AI.
