Ilse de Bar

Ilse de Bar works as Advisor Spatial Planning and Environment at van Santvoort Advies in Nuenen. Meet Ilse!

What are your daily activities at van Santvoort?

I advise clients and customers on the development of their company, house or plot in the field of spatial planning and environment. Here I am responsible for preparing customized proposals, requests in principle and the development of the environmental plan or permit application, together with my colleagues. I experience the process from design to realization up close!

What gives you energy at van Santvoort?

I get a lot of energy from submitting an application for an environmental plan or a principle request and that it eventually leads to the desired result. As soon as we have an agreement, I close it with the client. Looking back on the process together with the client in a positive way is what we do it for.

Other than work, what do you do in your free time?

I like to do sports, I do crossfit and boot camp. I also enjoy watching PSV in the pub with friends. I also volunteer at the Regional Opvang Zwerfdieren Eindhoven. In the summer I like to go to festivals with friends. In addition, I have plenty of animals at home (including alpacas, sheep, chickens) to take care of so I won’t get bored anytime soon!
