about us

Henriette Reinders

Henriette Reinders

Programme Manager

I joined WSX in 2018 to manage the Inspiring Enterprise project and currently work on a portfolio of start-up and business development activities.

I enjoy seeing other people thrive and build a better future for themselves whatever their background or ambition.

I am a business development professional with 20 years of board-level experience, and I am a qualified marketing and communications expert, and experienced project and procurement manager. Skills and experience that stand me in good stead at WSX.

I enjoy developing ideas and strategies, implementing plans, and making a difference.

Words that resonate with me include ‘joining the dots’, synergy, focus & effectiveness.
