Our team

Who we are 

As the congress team, we are part of the CORPUS team and proudly represent the unique CORPUS concept of the 'journey through the human body'. We reinforce each other in this, focusing on the business visitor! Because business events are our core business, and we do that well. 

We believe in the collective. We believe in complementing each other. Two heads are better than one. Providing a service does not feel like an obligation, but a feeling that comes from within. We share ideas and provide support. We think in terms of opportunities and prefer not to say no. From the planning stage to the day itself. 

We want everyone to know that CORPUS is the place to be for any event. And for visitors and clients to spread the message: 'they do it well'. Last but not least, we are obviously proud of our building, our wonderful rooms and all their options. 

INTRODUCING 

Kim Opdam - Department manager 

During her Communications training in Amsterdam, Kim had very different plans for her future. Until by chance she took a work placement at an events company, after which she never left the events industry. Here she feels completely at home! In 2015, she started as project coordinator Congresses & Events at CORPUS and still enjoys working here with her colleagues. Welcoming new as well as old clients and planning amazing events is what she loves doing best! Together with her colleagues, she makes every event a success. No day is the same, but that's what makes her job so much fun! 

Sandra Herruer - Senior party manager 

Sandra's career has always been in the catering industry, so as senior party manager at CORPUS, she is feels right at home. After running her own business, Sandra became a restaurant manager and coordinated parties at a Golf Club with great passion. She really enjoys being the contact person and giving that little bit extra, so that together we can make the event an even bigger success. Not forgetting her cheerful colleagues who are also motivated to make each day a great working day. 

Babs Kwetters - Junior project coordinator/party manager 

In the corona summer of 2021, Babs obtained her Hospitality & Events diploma at Mondriaan College in The Hague. Working in the industry where everything is about hospitality suits her down to the ground. Thanks to part-time jobs in busy restaurants in and around Leiden as a student, Babs is a flexible colleague. A sociable, enthusiastic, and keen young lady who loves social occasions and having people around her. Nothing gives her more satisfaction than seeing her guests leaving with smiles on their faces.
