Mathijs Van Den Berg is a transformation leader with over 15 years of cross-sector experience in Infrastructure, Oil & Gas and Renewables, currently steering Principle Power’s shift from R&D single-project delivery to a scalable, profitable floating offshore wind business. He combines mechanical engineering and financial management expertise (BEng, MSc, CCE) with hands-on program delivery—driving industrialization that cut client schedules by 30%, company-wide project controls, and resource management frameworks. Previously he led cost-optimization and digitalization efforts at Baker Hughes that delivered £40M savings and centralized global estimating at Vopak that halved project costs and schedules. Comfortable advising CEOs and boards, he blends technical estimating, process automation and strategic forecasting to translate complex engineering programs into predictable, investable outcomes. A pragmatic builder, he also founded and grew an engineering startup and has a track record of creating training and software tools that materially shorten onboarding and development cycles.
