Francis Scholten has been promoted to managing director Rental Projects division, one of the four divisions within the Losberger De Boer Group.
After starting as account manager international projects in 1999, Francis has gained extensive experience in the event rental business with high profile international projects such as the Asian Games, Olympic Games, Volvo Ocean Race and UEFA Championships.
In 2018, she was appointed MD of the company’s international projects in those countries where no permanent Losberger De Boer organisation was present. In 2019, the Middle East region, with UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, was added to her responsibilities.
Despite the major impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, Francis successfully managed a broad variety of important projects for Losberger De Boer that had to be carried out under complex conditions.
Notable examples are the construction of Jeddah Superdome in Saudi Arabia and the many projects that were realised to support healthcare institutions with additional capacity such as temporary hospitals, testing and vaccination centres.
Arnout de Hair, CEO of Losberger De Boer: “We are proud to have Francis within our team. We are pleased that with Francis we have been able to appoint someone from our own organisation, having a strong background and a vast network in the international rental project business, to this challenging position and wish her every success in this new role.”
