Press Release — Vetus Boosts Global Teams

VETUS, creator of complete boat systems, and innovator in electric propulsion solutions, has made significant employment announcements as part of a sustained initiative for growth and development.

Recently appointed as Sales Product Manager Glazing, Geert van der Veen returns to the VETUS family with additional experience in commercial and B2B sales. He will focus on expanding and strengthening relationships across this sector of the business.

“Ten years ago, I started my career at VETUS, first with two internships, and then several years working in sales and the warehouse. After a few years, I decided to try something different and expand my knowledge and experience elsewhere. My roles have always been in commercial sales with clients, honing my skills in this area along the way, I am looking forward to revisiting relationships with the VETUS clients, and building some new ones.”

Senior Digital Marketing Specialist Erik Peters also joins the expanding VETUS team, and will be responsible for the digital marketing activities, strengthening brand awareness, and enhancing the digital customer experience.

Erik previously worked for PEO, a company that supplies innovative technical products, software, and services for the medical market, including measuring instruments used in radiotherapy. “At PEO I was responsible for all online marketing activities for the various business units as well as corporate communication,” says Erik. “With my experience I can help to further develop VETUS’ digital strategy and find the right and most effective way in the sometimes-endless possibilities, applications, and technologies that digital marketing offers.”

These key appointments demonstrate VETUS’ continued investment in people and skills, and the company’s drive to dynamically expand its global teams in preparation for their move to brand new Headquarters in Schiedam, Q3 2024.
