Background

About Van Heffen

Welcome to my profile! Before you dive into my work experience, let me give you a brief introduction, both personal and professional. I was born and raised in Eindhoven, where I still live with my wife and our (office) dog. In my free time, I enjoy staying active, whether that's playing padel, going to the gym, walking the dog, or spending time with friends. It helps me stay energized and balanced. Professionally, I work as an Operations & Project Manager in a tech-driven environment, focusing on automation, R\ & D, and operational optimization. With a background in (Technical) Industrial Engineering, I combine analytical thinking with a hands-on approach. I thrive at the intersection of technology, organization, and innovation, where ideas take shape and deliver real impact. I’m most motivated in dynamic environments where I’m given freedom and responsibility, and where my efforts contribute visibly to improving processes and performance. My strengths lie in creating structure, connecting teams, and turning strategy into execution. I’m communicative across all levels, result-driven, and committed to sustainable improvements, always with an eye for both detail and people.
