GGzE is a healthcare institution in Eindhoven dedicated to mental health and welfare. Interim manager Milou François works here, among other things, as process coordinator for greenery, contributing to making the 117-hectare De Grote Beek estate more sustainable.
Versatile assignment with various functions
In her interim assignment, Milou fulfills three positions: policy advisor at the Service Center, project leader within an organization-wide improvement program and process coordinator green. In this last role, she is the link between (internal) customers, suppliers and the available budget. She looks at how green management and maintenance can be smarter and more sustainable.
