Background

About Rolf Bakker

With a strong foundation in finance and a passion for innovation, I thrive at the intersection of strategy, technology, and execution. I’ve served as Finance Director in both multinational corporations and private equity-backed companies, managing complex operations and leading high-impact transformations. Over the past decade, I’ve built and led a businesses of my own— a 3D scanning startup delivering cutting-edge solutions for commercial and scientific applications. That entrepreneurial journey shaped how I lead today: pragmatic, hands-on, and always focused on results that create real value. Whether optimizing finance operations, driving digital innovation, or navigating change, I bring energy, clarity, and a bias for action. I’m at my best in dynamic environments that demand both strategic perspective and operational grit. I don’t stop until things run as they should—and better. I’m particularly interested in opportunities where financial leadership and entrepreneurial thinking are both essential—especially in companies aiming to scale, transform, or break new ground.
