Jasper de Jong

Jasper de Jong is a Partner at EO Executives in the Netherlands. He focuses on placing leaders at board and senior executive level for private equity-backed companies, family-owned businesses, multinationals and listed companies. For him, success is not simply about filling a role; it is about whether a leader can truly deliver in a given environment.

His clients are entrepreneurs, executives, and investors who make high-stakes leadership decisions under real pressure, whether driving growth, navigating transformation, or evolving complex organisations. They are not just looking for strong candidates. They need clarity on what the role is meant to achieve and confidence that those expectations will hold up in practice.

Jasper approaches executive search with a strong understanding of how businesses really work. Operating at the intersection of search, business development, and leadership, he combines a structured approach with a clear view of internal dynamics and a pragmatic sense of what will work in context. In this way, he helps clients make leadership decisions that hold up, whether they are building new business areas, evolving organisations, or strengthening leadership teams.

In more complex situations, such as private equity environments or value chain realignments, he brings clarity to what a role needs to deliver, how success will be measured, and what matters most in the early months.
