Ton van de Steenoven

I first applied to join Financial Assets in 2001 because it was the only executive search firm that I knew for sure had the right knowledge and relationships in the financial sector. I also wanted more independence and entrepreneurial freedom than I had in my previous positions. I was asked to set up the Compliance, Risk Management, Operations and Finance & Audit domain for Financial Assets.

Now, 23 years later, Financial Assets has grown to become a highly professional executive search agency, and it’s difficult to imagine the financial world without it. I’ve been working with this team of colleagues for a long time now, and for us freedom and enterprise go hand in hand with enjoying our work in this field and supporting some unique individuals. Luctor et Emergo is my motto: I struggle and overcome. No matter how difficult something might seem, keep going and never give up. Something good will come out of it in the end.
