Annemarie van Leeuwen | Office manager

After graduating as an Engineer in 1984 I joined KLM’s IT department. Two years later I transferred to HEMA and broadened my experience to business/IT alignment. I moved through the different work levels of business and IT projects, varying from projectmanager, program manager for Business/IT, to group & resource manager of IT departments.

In the seven years at HEMA I also graduated in Business Economics. With this combination of education and work experience I started teaching at Polytechnical Institutes in The Hague, Amsterdam & Haarlem.

In 2002 I entered university once again to chase an old dream of studying Art History. This study, in which I graduated in 2009, resulted in the start of my own business: 'Groene Geschiedenis'. This business provides historical research, analysis and recommendations for public and private owners and managers of landmark architecture, parks and gardens and for developers of city and landscaping plans. So I combine my work at UCPartners with activities for my own business.

As an Office Manager for UCPartners I am primarily responsible for Finance, Accounting and HRM processes.
