Clients

My clients are mainly professional service firms, and sometimes other knowledge-heavy B2B organizations.

ESG go-to-market – 2022 until 2024

In the past 1.5 years, I’ve helped DLA Piper take their ESG service offering to market in The Netherlands.

Together with the MBD team I helped multiple teams of subject matter experts with their go-to-market efforts.

Ranging from understanding what their ideal clients look like to developing distinct value propositions, and clear visions for the future.

Collaboratively we developed and implemented a new way of bringing services to market.

A way of working that was also adopted by other teams that wanted to market their (non-ESG) services.


“I’m thrilled about this structured approach. Great teamwork!” – Partner Corporate Litigation & International Arbitration

“Jochem is a skilled and enthusiastic professional, with a solid knowledge and understanding of our organization.” – Partner Antitrust & Competition

Three figureheads programs – 2017 until 2022

In 2022, Stéphan Lam and I finished version 3.0 of the figureheads program at EY. We helped leaders develop and convey a clear, distinct vision for the future.

In 2017/2018, I already had the pleasure to advise and support EY in a pilot project. During a few months, we intensively worked with a small group of front runners. These 20 EY professionals managed to book amazing results. Not only did they increase their own visibility and reach, they also contributed to actual business results: leads and hires.

In 2018/2019, the pilot was integrated into the existing figureheads program. This allowed for more subject matter experts to participate and an even bigger impact.


“Very inspiring, concrete, and useful. The program truly makes you think and, at the same time, puts you in action mode.” – Sales & Markets Leader

“Really liked the structure, interaction, pace, and pressure to deliver.” – Managing Partner

New online marketing strategy & marketing boost – 2015 until 2021

In 2015/2016, I worked on the development and implementation of a new online marketing strategy for Berenschot – together with external adviser Roeland Stekelenburg.

A strategy that evolved around positioning all of Berenschot’s subject matter experts.

I coached subject matter experts and supported the marketing & communications team in the practical execution of the strategy.

Later, the project was followed by a program in which we increased the marketing & business development skills of the Berenschot consultants.


“Jochem truly understands professionals. He aligned perfectly with my personal desire to become more visible as a thought leader.” – Senior Managing Consultant
