Profile: Johan Van de Velde, Chief Legal Officer
As the Chief Legal Officer at Schréder, Johan Van de Velde oversees legal affairs for the company and its subsidiaries. He leads the global corporate legal department, managing a team of ten legal and compliance professionals.
The Challenge
Schréder sought to enhance its legal operations by integrating flexible legal expertise to manage workload fluctuations and specialized projects. The objective was to maintain high legal standards while optimizing efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Flexibility & Quality
Though Legal Interim Managers were very rare at the start of Johan’s career, managing a global legal team is now unimaginable without them. The bar is set at a high level though. The Legal Interim Manager needs to be immediately operational with a high level of legal expertise, while being able to take into account the company’s strategic interests from the start.
The solution: Collaboration with Limine
To address these needs, Schréder partnered with Limine, leveraging their platform to connect with experienced freelance legal interim managers. This collaboration allowed Schréder to access a pool of vetted legal professionals, ensuring seamless integration and alignment with the company’s objectives.
“When hiring people, be it permanent or temporary, I look at speed and quality. Both are present at Limine. For me it’s the only way of working.” says Johan Van de Velde.
Conclusion
The partnership between Schréder Group and Limine exemplifies the speed and quality Limine can deliver. Schréder effectively addressed its legal staffing challenges, reinforcing its commitment to excellence in legal operations.
