Appointed starting May 1st, van den Hurk is the new CEO of VBH. VBH is a strong and healthy forerunner in the application and integration of luxury technologies onboard superyachts.
Jeroen brings more than 25 years of experience in the technology and manufacturing industry. He acted in different roles, both in technology and commercial functions. Over the years, Jeroen became a builder of companies, e.g. VDL Industrial Modules. At VDL Jeroen was involved in constructing machines as expensive as most superyachts.
He is eager to apply his extensive knowledge and experience in specialized machine building to the yachting industry. He believes these two worlds show many similarities. In both industries, multiple companies are involved in delivering parts of what needs to become a bigger whole.
Van den Hurk is a technology visionary with a proven track record of execution. He provides the leadership to successfully implement strategies and is eager to play a role in advancing the superyacht market.
