Managing Partner Security

Dave de Ridder

At Capri Partners I am the managing partner for the Security division. Here, we guide and manage the processes surrounding the recruitment and placement of Security professionals. Whether you are looking for a new challenge as a Security specialist, or you are searching for new talent that will make your organization even safer, Capri Partners is the right partner for you. We set ourselves apart by truly diving deep into Security as a recruitment partner, which allows us to provide the right advice to both specialists and clients. Every day I try to make our office a great place to be together with my colleagues, and with my positive mindset, I aim to inspire them as well. When I am not working, I enjoy playing football, tennis, and padel. Besides that, I love spending time at home with my two beautiful daughters and my amazing wife.

Performance lead

Lieke Galema

As Performance Lead at Capri Partners, my goal is to support and inspire our professionals in their development. Together, we look at what someone needs to be successful and how to take that next step. I truly believe in the combination of professional and personal growth. That’s why we are building a strong program with valuable sessions and one-on-one coaching where genuine attention is key. I do this with an energetic team and a lot of joy. Most of my energy comes from interacting with people; I learn something new every single day. What motivates me most are the conversations where someone opens up and I can add real value by asking the right questions. Those are the moments where it all comes together for me. Colleagues describe me as open, energetic, and direct, and I love bringing a sense of humor and lightness to the workday. Outside of my role at Capri, I’m the proud mother of Sam and Nienke and I enjoy life with Kees and my family. In my free time, I like to stay active by sports or sailing, and I have a broad interest in art and fashion. For me, the balance between depth in my work and fun outside of it is essential.

Every day brings the chance to meet someone new, each with their own story and needs. Creating the right match is what motivates me and contributes to the positive and energetic culture we strive for at Capri Partners. Curiosity defines me, both as a colleague and as a person. It drives me to understand others better and to think creatively when facing challenges or exploring new possibilities.

Puk Verbeek

As a Business Consultant at Capri Partners, I love bringing people, opportunities, and organizations together. I look beyond just a CV or a job title; I want to truly understand where someone wants to go and what an organization actually needs. To me, a match is only successful when the expertise, ambition, and energy between both parties feel right. I’m most energized by the moments where everything aligns and a new match creates a lasting impact. It’s great to offer people a fresh start or a growth opportunity, especially when I see my own ideas translated into results. As a colleague, I am sincerely involved, curious, and goal-oriented. I find it easy to connect with others, a skill I sharpened during my time in the real estate world in Ibiza. I prefer to think in possibilities and always keep a positive outlook on life.

I’m responsible for operations at Capri Partners. From leave requests to expense claims and everything in between. But my work is not just about systems. I personally support new candidates to ensure their start is as smooth as possible. What I enjoy most is approachable contact, a listening ear, and making sure people know who to turn to. Colleagues describe me as helpful, perfectionistic, and hilarious. I believe in the good in people and if that’s naive, so be it.

Emmi Thiadens

As a Business Consultant at Capri Partners, I work closely with our business partners to find and place data professionals. I help clients clearly define their needs and think along about what will truly move their organization forward. For candidates, I act as a trusted sparring partner, supporting them in taking the next step in their career. I find it most rewarding when both sides progress and the match feels right. With a master’s degree in Marketing and Corporate Communication, I already worked part-time at Capri Partners for two years during my studies. This gave me a strong understanding of both the role and the organization, a foundation I continue to build on every day. I am motivated by working toward success in small, concrete steps. This can be helping a candidate find a new challenge, or supporting a client in securing the right professional. The process of getting there, building together, adjusting where needed, and seeing real results, is what drives me most. I communicate directly and pay close attention to detail. Colleagues would describe me as proactive, clear in expectations, and careful in my work. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling and discovering new places. Closer to home, I like exploring new restaurants in Amsterdam. I believe in ambition and dedication, but also in enjoying life and gaining new experiences.

Managing Partner België

Julius Brouwers

I believe that talent acquisition isn’t about CVs or vacancies. It’s about people. About genuine relationships, trust, and the willingness to go one layer deeper. As a partner at Capri Partners in Belgium, I am responsible for carrying forward our Capri DNA and expertise. That means investing in real connection, paying attention to the small things, and always keeping the bigger picture in mind. Because when you work with people, the real strength often lies in the details. I get energy from conversations that matter. From discovering what truly drives someone and how that matches an environment where they can grow. To me, our work is not a one way street, but a collaboration built on trust and transparency. In my work, I aim for commitment, clarity and results. Not just because it is expected, but because I believe that is how you truly help people and organisations move forward in a sustainable way. And especially when things get complex, that is when you make the difference. Outside of work, it is all about balance. Time with my girlfriend, family and friends means everything. Sports and personal development help me stay focused and energised, physically and mentally. I truly believe you can only help others grow if you keep investing in who you are and what drives you.

At Capri Partners, I help organizations find the right IT and data professionals — and vice versa. Whether it’s a temporary assignment or a long-term position, I ask critical questions and make sure there is a real connection. My goal is to create lasting matches that add value on both sides. I get energized by helping people move forward, from the candidate taking their next step to the client who says, “This one truly makes an impact.” I’m someone who works with passion, stays sharp on content, but also often brings good vibes to the office. Outside of work, you’ll often find me in the boxing ring where I can release my energy. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family, preferably with good food or on the way to a new place.
