Marisa Lodewijks makes big jump on AM Topvrouwen List

Marisa Lodewijks

Marisa Lodewijks has been the Director of Ingage Franchise since September 1, 2021. That makes her the first female director of the largest Dutch franchise organisation for mortgage advice. Lodewijks has more than earned her spurs in the financial advice world. She has worked for Ingage Franchise since May 1, 2015, and was their Commercial Director from 2018 to 2021. It was a logical step for her to take over the baton from Mark de Rijke halfway through last year. Lodewijks: “Actually, I’m not that bothered about lists. Certainly not when they judge people on the basis of gender, race, or any other criteria that you don’t need to do anything for. Even so, I’m proud of my jump in the AM Topvrouwen-lijst, because it’s down to what I’ve achieved. I’m happy to be judged against the route I’m taking with Ingage Franchise, the results I achieve and the vision I’m promoting.”

AM Topvrouwen list
