"Following a thorough selection process, we are pleased to have recruited Peter

a proven track record in leading a global business in the engineering industry,"
said Niek Hoek, Chairman of Arcadis' Supervisory Board. "We are on a journey to
ensuring Arcadis' global capabilities reach more and more clients, and that we
outperform our competition in global and local markets. Peter's experience in
delivering excellence in project management, running successful commercial
operations, and strategic expertise, combined with his leadership skills, make
him well suited to lead Arcadis forward. He will join the current Arcadis
Executive Team who have managed Arcadis well during the recruitment process. I
would like to thank them, and interim CEO Renier Vree in particular, for their
dedication over the past few months."
"Arcadis is a great company entering a critical phase in its development, and
I'm excited about the prospect of leading it through that phase", said Mr.
Oosterveer. "I look forward to working with the rest of the Executive Board and
all the talented people in Arcadis to deliver profitable and sustainable growth.
My passion as a leader is ensuring the highest quality delivery, and unrelenting
client focus, and I know this matches Arcadis' values. My international business
experience, knowledge of the engineering industry, and client and people
development focus will be invaluable for the success of Arcadis. "
Mr. Oosterveer is a Dutch national and holds a bachelor's degree in Electrical
Engineering from the Noordelijke Hogeschool Leeuwarden. He joined Fluor

procurement, construction, maintenance and project management companies with
