About

us

Perfectly perfectionist, this lovely lady was born in Friesland and is now married and living in Nijkerk. Her accurate, meticulous work ethic makes her a valued colleague. She is happiest when she can write, and she loves the versatility of the activities at Marcommit. In her spare time, you can find her on the couch crocheting and watching a lifestyle show on TV, such as House Rules. In addition, she likes playing sports and loves working up a sweat in the gym. When she is able to shoot the perfect picture in nature, she is truly in her element. Pet peeve: when things are crooked in her own home. Perfectionist that she is, she always needs to take a moment to straighten them out.

Born in South Holland, raised in Limburg and now making a career for herself in Utrecht. Luckily for us, because this means we not only have the pleasure of Annelies’s company at Marcommit, but also her focus, sociability, and creativity – she’s an indispensable asset to our team. She loves good food and sports, and she’s a permanent fixture at our weekly office yoga sessions and a regular guest at our Friday afternoon drinks. Unfortunately for us, Annelies can’t always stay for drinks because her weekends start early, beckoning her away on trips to Tel Aviv this week, London next week and who knows where the week after that. Her wanderlust is insatiable – having even studied in Chile for six months, a period of her life that has certainly left its mark on her with her penchant for Spanish TV series and South American cuisine.

Our very own baker’s daughter sure is one sharp cookie – doing something half-baked just isn’t in her vocabulary. Take for example her earlier work at the Sports Council … there she was the one of the best things they’d seen on Utrecht’s PR scene since sliced bread. Nowadays, she earns her crust concocting concepts and crafting content for leading publications. It’s a piece of cake for her to knead the stickiest, trickiest terminology into delectably doughy diction that sells like hotcakes! Oh, and watch out! She sure knows how to separate the wheat from the chaff – both in her work and on the tennis court, which is where you’ll often find her during the summer months. But on cold, dark winter nights, she also loves to snuggle up in her onesie with a hot cup of tea for a gripping thriller or a scintillating TV series. We certainly know which side our bread is buttered. With her perseverance and perpetual positivity, we shan’t fail to rise to the occasion.

Born on Dutch soil and raised on the Caribbean island of Curacao and the Dutch tulip town of Lisse, Gosse is currently a proud resident of Utrecht. And he’s never abandoned the best parts of living in the countryside, embracing more of the authentic Italian identity than you might think from his roots. For Gosse, it’s all about eating, drinking, and socievolezza: the good life. He’d be just fine squeezing in an afternoon nap into his daily schedule, too. On any given weeknight, there’s a good chance that Gosse will be at the cinema since film is one of his passions. With his focus on results, punctuality, and love of anything tech, Gosse is a perfect match for the team. And his love of food? For now, he expresses that at Marcommit by making himself some simple Dutch sandwiches in the kitchen at work, at least three times a day.

Charming and irrepressibly optimistic, this lovely lady works hard. Marlin enjoys helping others. Whether she’s working on social media, writing texts or other PR activities, she turns everything into a success. Every Sunday, she can be found on the sidelines, supporting her Olav, but her own particular talents are more along the lines of pen and paper than stick and ball. In addition, this gourmet is usually one of the first guests when a new restaurant opens its doors, and she’s always interested in sampling the tastiest craft beers. And to offset her hobbies with healthier pastimes, she also exercises a lot and eats all her vegetables. It’s a perfect balance!

This farmer’s daughter from Dronten is hard to miss at Marcommit. With her wild hair and expressive laugh, she makes sure everyone gets the morning updates about the latest episodes of Hotter Than My Daughter, Ex On The Beach, or some other trashy Dutch TV show. Oh, and if you’re wondering who that one person still watching Utopia might be, we have her on our team: it’s Lotte! To make sure she doesn’t pack on the couch potato kilos, our cheerful tea-drinker is frequently found racing across the hockey field. This creative all-rounder has quite a bit of experience in marketing and communication and always does her best to achieve optimal results for the customers. She won’t have time for chit-chat or gossip until that’s all done. And speaking of gossip… TV viewers might know this lady from her glorious performance on the Dutch hit TV show Boer Zoekt Vrouw. Other than that, she describes herself as a crazy cat lady, and any type of chocolate will make her very, very happy.

Always professional to a T, Mariëlle is a stable mainstay for all her co-workers. Once she starts something, she gets it done, no matter what it is. She prefers to see a packed calendar featuring infinite variety every week, and has no problems prioritising. Her creativity guarantees PR services that are both pro-active and perfectionist. This easy-going lady has a passion for painting, drawing, skiing and talking… And she might just be a bit of a closet shopaholic. Particularly in Paris, the city that stole her heart, enjoying a café au lait and a crisp croissant.

The spiritual mother of Marcommit highly values a proactive attitude. ‘Happy’, Pharrell’s well-known hit, is her own personal theme song and her zest for entrepreneurship is boundless. A strategist to the core, she has already helped countless organizations excel in their communication, PR, and marketing. But that is not her sole accomplishment. She also fulfills a maternal role for her two daughters, two dogs, three cats and to her team as well. For the past 19 years, she has raised dozens of Marcommit employees and infused them with her knowledge. When she comes racing to the office in her Mini, you can rest assured of one thing: I will learn something today. In short: without Marianne, there would not be a Marcommit.

Juggles many different responsibilities effortlessly. Because of her years of experience in PR and marketing, she has accumulated a vast wealth of knowledge and experience which she prefers to use to help companies grow. Maartje is strong in both strategic and operational areas. She has first-hand experience in all aspects of her profession. This enables Maartje to see through all the hustle and bustle and remain focused on her clients’ objectives. Add another ball? Not a problem, Maartje will never miss a beat. And she is exactly the same at home. With her three kids, she can see the balls coming a mile away and juggle them expertly. Good thing, too, as it also makes her a valuable team member on the hockey fields.

This PR jack-of-all-trades has over ten years of experience in working for IT organizations. She is a real champ at devising and implementing strategic and creative plans and knows exactly how to translate these strategies to the press. There is nothing you can come up with that she cannot get done. And not just professionally, either; she also is quite capable of closing the deal in a few bouts of recreational kickboxing. This powerhouse not only plays to her strengths in marketing and PR for Marcommit. In her capacity as Manager HR, she is also the mainstay and safe harbor for everyone working at Marcommit.

With his charming disposition, he is able to sustain himself amidst the sea of women at Marcommit. As a die-hard IT specialist, he makes sure the rest of the team can always count on him to resolve their IT issues. This treasure trove of IT knowledge and expertise is able to help the rest of the team through the most complex IT troubles and always keeps them up-to-date on the latest developments. Sometimes things get too hectic, which is when you’ll find him at the golf range swinging his clubs once in a while.
