I am impressed with what Relay42 has to offer them. Not only is it a software product that is unmatched in the marketplace, but the company is also made up of so many passionate and intelligent people — developers, consultants, sales professionals — who genuinely want to make our clients successful.”

With Rogier in this leadership role, current CEO and founder, Tomas Salfischberger, will focus on driving product vision and roadmap, as well as propelling international expansion. “I am thrilled to be able to accelerate and internationalize the vision we started 8 years ago,” says Tomas. “It’s great that Relay42 is able to attract this kind of expertise, and I am really looking forward to the next exciting steps for our company.”

Relay42 also announces the appointment of Liesbeth Schuurbiers to the role of People & Operations Director as well as a seat on the Management Team. Previously HR Director at Nespresso Netherlands, Liesbeth brings a wealth of expertise in growing companies, building successful teams, developing strong communities, and developing value-based performance cultures. With years of experience in HR Manager and Business Partner roles, as well as a background in recruitment consulting and employment law, Liesbeth will support strong growth and development of the people, teams, processes, and culture within Relay42.

“I’m excited to get to work building an even stronger organization together with my new colleagues at Relay42,” says Liesbeth. “There is such a passionate and entrepreneurial spirit here, and the coming years I’m looking forward to keeping that spirit alive while we expand upon our core values and create a performance culture where everyone can develop and add chapters to the journey and history of Relay42.”
