Eliane Blomen started as new Director Strategy at JBR

What struck you first at JBR?

In her first week at JBR, Eliane felt right at home. "It felt like a warm bath," she says. "The atmosphere at JBR is collegial, and there is great trust within the team." These values fit seamlessly with the professional and personal culture that characterizes JBR.

"At JBR, you see a combination of professionalism and humanity," Eliane continues. She appreciates the quality in the premises, furnishings and how clients are received. "The way they work is professional and careful, with clear responsibilities invested with ownership. In addition, the support department takes good care of the team, which is a huge support."

Eliane brings more than 15 years of experience in strategic issues related to energy transition, sustainability and financial structures. Her analytical thinking skills and ability to translate complex problems into practical solutions are at the core of her approach.

What makes JBR unique?

Eliane chose JBR because of its thorough (sector) knowledge and experience, which makes each project customized, and cases are viewed multidimensionally. "At JBR it is not only about short-term financial results, but also about long-term impact," she explains. The freedom and responsibility she experiences here inspire her to work with the team on future-proof solutions.

You have a passion for energy transition?

Energy transition is a topic close to Eliane's heart. She sees it as a societal challenge and opportunity to make an impact. "Connecting strategic insights with practical implementation is essential to make progress," she says. Her experience as a generalist helps her quickly engage the right expertise and effectively shift between details and the bigger picture.

What are your plans for the first 100 days at JBR?

In her first few months, Eliane wants to focus on listening, learning and building. "I want to immerse myself in the sectors in which JBR operates and have a good understanding of what our clients need," she explains. With her results-oriented approach and ability to connect teams, Eliane wants to make a positive impact at JBR and beyond.

We are proud to have Eliane on our team and look forward to the innovative contributions she and her team will undoubtedly make.
