Excellent connector
“Rob is an excellent connector. He has an extensive international network and a talent for connecting the right people. In doing so, his own role always remains in the background; he steers and monitors the process naturally from the sidelines. Rob has greatly helped Cambuur in the financing of the new stadium.”

Pleasant to work with, always respectful of others
‘I met Rob as a colleague when he joined PSV in 1985. His job was to score goals, which he did: 15 goals in 25 matches. My job was to keep the balls out of the net. That year we became champions of the Netherlands and shortly afterwards Rob transferred to Sporting Lisbon.
I got to know Rob as a true team player: driven, pleasant to work with, and always respectful of others. He embodies the qualities of an English gentleman.
A few years ago, I came into contact with him more often. Rob hasn't changed much: authentic, with a touch of English humour and a natural self-assurance. He always thinks from the team's perspective.”
