Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGerard Kok is a seasoned partner at AFR Careers with over 20 years of consulting and hands-on experience in business coaching, project and program management, and interim financial management focused on audit, finance and risk functions. He helps experienced managers accelerate their careers through targeted search, recruitment and coaching, drawing on senior roles at KPMG, RBS, ABN AMRO and multiple CFO and director assignments. Gerard combines pragmatic delivery skills—running large cross-border change programs and complex financial projects—with a coach’s mindset that prioritizes results, quality and team performance. He is known for diagnosing organisational inconsistency and translating that into concrete improvement plans that boost client satisfaction and operational discipline. Based in Amsterdam, he pairs a Registercontroller qualification from VU Amsterdam and a Business Administration degree from Groningen with a hands-on track record across banking, corporate and advisory environments. A less obvious strength is his recurring role as a “bridge” between strategic leadership and day‑to‑day execution, enabling sustainable change rather than one-off fixes.
