Annemiek Priester joins OCI NV as HR Manager International (09/2019)
We are proud and happy to congratulate Annemiek Priester in her new role as International HR Manager at OCI NV. Per September 1st, 2019.
Annemiek and our interim team will be working side by side on the OCI NV Corporate HR Team on OCI’s many exciting business initiatives.
For us, our interim HR transition activities go hand in hand in strengthening our internal HR team and thanks to our strong network in the HR community, we were able to facilitate this transfer.
While on assignment with OCI NV, the corporate HR environment vastly expanded in scope, resulting in a highly increased workload, as resourcing was already quite lean. During all our assignments, increasing the maturity and strength of the existing HR team is always a goal. Confident that we had the right candidate in our network, we were happy to offer our help in the search for experienced, strong HR professionals. To learn more about our interim HR positions.
