Tom van Veldhuisen

Passionate about infrastructure
that just works.

I'm a driven and enthusiastic IT professional based in Utrecht, the Netherlands, with broad interests and a healthy ambition. Through the experiences I've built up over the years, I've become highly customer-focused and have developed a strong ability to solve problems independently.

My career spans the media industry, the Dutch Ministry of Defence, and specialised IT consultancy — giving me a well-rounded background across demanding and diverse environments.

Currently working as a Systems Administrator at Banijay Benelux, where I'm responsible for maintaining and setting up internal systems and networks.
