Frank Daelemans’s Summary

I'm experienced in dealing with all formalities (administrative, financial and veterinary) for the export of both goods and animals inside and outside the European Union. My work includes contacts and negociations with authorities, follow up of rules and regulations concerning animal welfare, security of food chain, quarantine requirements, etc. I'm used to functioning under stress due to constant time pressure related to dealing with live animals.
I have extensive knowledge of building up a national organisation in function of an international race (commercial/marketing, transport, veterinary aspects, administration, service and follow up, communication towards participants, etc.)
My export consultancy education (2 years) dealt with International trade and finance laws, currency exchange techniques, Finance, Foreign Trade, International economics, Import and Customs, Transport, Export marketing, Insurance, etc.
I also have a lot of experience in dealing with people from many different nationalities and cultural backgrounds.
I'm interested in all ventures that offer me the opportunity to use my skills in a project driven approach in an international and multicultural environment.
