Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWouter Kleijn is a sustainability-focused project lead with a decade-long international track record of turning climate ambition into measurable impact across energy, development and social programs. Currently leading Amsterdam’s heat pump program, he coordinates neighbourhood engagement, subsidy design and stakeholder partnerships to accelerate the shift from fossil heating to electric and hybrid systems. He co-founded a solar and EV installation company that delivered 200+ projects, €1M in revenue and trained disadvantaged people into stable jobs, and scaled revenue and funding at HackYourFuture while helping 200+ refugees start IT careers. Comfortable at the intersection of policy, operations and community outreach, he has run field research in multiple continents and secured public and private financing for sustainable initiatives. Colleagues describe him as a practical systems thinker who mixes hands-on program delivery with participatory leadership—often surfacing revenue or training models where others see only projects. Based in Amsterdam, he blends NGO, startup and municipal experience to get complex sustainability programs built and adopted.
