Pim de Vries appointed as new U-center CEO

As of mid-May 2024, Pim de Vries has taken on the role of interim CEO at U-center. He succeeds Els van Bezouwen, who has held this position since January 2022.

With over 25 years of management experience, Pim de Vries brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to U-center. He has held various roles in commercial companies and healthcare institutions, including elderly care, disability care, and youth care. U-center is familiar territory for Pim de Vries, as he previously served as interim CFO at the organization.

Pim de Vries succeeds Els van Bezouwen, who has played an important role in the further development of our treatment center over the past two and a half years. Els has found a new challenge and will start as the new Chair of the Board at Yulius GGZ in Rotterdam on July 1st. We wish Els lots of success in her new position.

Pim de Vries will focus on ensuring the growth of U-center and consolidating the quality of treatments within our psychotherapeutic treatment center.

Quote Pim de Vries:
"The most appealing element of being an interim director within health institutions is, that by furthering the cooperation between care personnel and staff, I am able to serve a valuable goal: a lasting improvement of healthcare for people in real need of support.”
