Bram Dierkes appointed as new Managing Director of Estillon
As of 1 April, Bram Dierkes has taken on the role of Managing Director at Estillon. Bram was already a familiar face within the company as Commercial Director and succeeds Richard Bosveld, who is stepping down after nearly 30 years to pursue new challenges.
Looking ahead with confidence:
Bram continues to build on Estillon’s solid foundation
Bram brings a fresh perspective, valuable experience, and a strong ambition. His passion for sport and his personal goal – climbing Mont Ventoux three times in support of the ALS foundation – highlight his dedication and perseverance. Qualities that align perfectly with the direction we are taking.
Richard led Estillon with great commitment for many years and played a key role in shaping the company into what it is today. With Bram at the helm, we look to the future with confidence. Together with our dedicated team, we will continue to work on innovative and sustainable solutions for our customers, with the same enthusiasm and commitment as always.
