Short bio

I started working at an asset manager in compliance before moving into consulting and have remained in consulting ever since. I worked on various interesting projects across three continents, with different clients and have faced many challenges in the CRO and CFO domain. At Mount, I will put my experience to work and focus on the regulatory and data aspects within the Risk and Finance functions.

Short bio

Born in Belgium, grew up in Germany, since then the world has been my village. I grew up around computers and technology, so a study in IT seemed to be the logical thing. Working in a bank, I was fascinated by the virtuality of it all, just data being created, manipulated, moved, erased, through numerous processes and systems… But there was more out there, because asset managers, pension funds, private banks all manipulated data in their own way! The next step was obvious: consulting. Through international projects I realized that change only works and makes an impact if it starts with a vision at the crossroads of data, business and IT. So I became an Enterprise Architect and that is what I have been doing ever since.

Architecture was also the reason for my other love: photography. The way we build impressive feats of engineering, the way nature finds a way to shape majestic landscapes, it has been a hobby which teaches me a lot about the commonalities and differences between virtual architecture and real-life constructions.

But of course, my life would not be complete without my family, with whom I try to spend what little spare time I have. I will always be grateful for their support and tolerance in all the endeavors, like Mount Consulting, as without them this adventure would not be possible.

Partner

Short bio

I started working in a small boutique consulting firm while finishing my Master’s degree in Financial Economics, and never considered a change of industry since. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to work in small, medium-sized and large international consulting firms to continuously develop myself. Being at the front of large scale transformation projects, both in London and Amsterdam, for several years, I decided it was time to be at the front of our own consulting firm!

At Mount, I focus on CFO and CRO transformation projects. The past decade, regulators are a major force driving change, even more so in the future. We commit to deliver the best strategic solutions to CFO and CRO to deliver this change.

Manager

Short bio

After studying Psychology and Economics, decided to pursue a job as a consultant in the financial services sector. During the first couple of years whereby I worked on various projects, I realized that I mainly enjoy finding suitable solutions for problems where business and IT meet. Since then I have been focusing more and more on data and architectural challenges.

At Mount I focus not only on my project and client deliverables. I can also create the time to focus on myself and my own development as well as the growth of the company. However, having ambitious goals means that it does not always come easy. But even then; you can’t just give up, cause that’s not what a dinosaur would do.

Senior Consultant

Short bio

I graduated from the Erasmus University, where I completed my MSc in Finance. The next step was clear: consultancy in the financial services sector. After taking some time off for my other passion, travelling and discovering a new culture, I started working in a medium-sized international consulting firm.

Soon I discovered that the flexibility and no-nonsense of a niche firm would suit me better and I was lucky enough to join Mount Consulting, where I can now focus on strategy and transformation within the CFO and CRO domains. While bringing our clients imagination to life, I can also focus on developing myself and the company, for me this is the ideal combination.

THIJS PEETERS

Partner

Short bio

Having started my career in Accountancy, I switched to consulting after passing my Certified Accountant (‘RA’) exam. Triggered to add value by advisory rather than auditing numbers and processes. Growing experience at EY, PwC, Capco and Synechon, in New York, London, and Amsterdam, in consulting as well as leading positions, I decided it was time providing the financial services industry with an alternative for the current consulting firms. Together with my partner fellows also pictured at this site. And so Mount Consulting arose.

At Mount, like in the last 20 years within other consulting firms, I focus my advisory skills at the CFO and CRO domain of financial services organisations, and, more specifically, at aligning both functions to improve performance.

Short bio

After studying Mathematics and Computer Science in Lisbon, I started my professional career as consultant in the Financial Services Industry. From my first projects I gained my experience in the area where Risk Management meets Data Management and Data Integration Architecture.

Founded by my knowledge of financial risk management, I help banks, insurers, and asset managers transform to an optimized (external, regulatory and management) reporting and risk modeling chain and environment, applying best practices for data integration and data management as customized as possible.

Since 2018 I’ve started my career as an independent consultant.
