Policy advisor RAI CarrosserieNL

Jasper Burgers

After studying mechanical engineering and business administration, I joined the family business Burgers Carrosserie. From work planner to sales, I worked for a number of years as owner-manager of this beautiful company. After 22 years I responded to a vacancy of FOCWA Carrosseriebouw and got the opportunity to continue working in 'Carrosseriebouw' and to share my knowledge and experience with the members.

My official role is policy advisor, but in practice I am very much involved at executive level in assisting members individually or collectively with issues in areas such as technology, laws and regulations, occupational health and safety, CE marking, quality marks, education/training and implementation of OOC projects in the field of image of the sector and promoting entry into the sector. Since October 1, 2012 employed by FOCWA Carrosseriebouw, which was then renamed CarrosserieNL and after the merger with RAI SV in 2016 became RAI CarrosserieNL.

The work I do now is also my hobby. In addition, I do a lot of cycling, photography, occasionally build a scale model of a truck, which is then used at technology events and guest lectures, enjoy attending all kinds of sporting events and, together with my sister, own a small real estate company.
