Kimberley Hoewers

Kimberley Hoevers started her journey within Worldline in 2018 in the role of account manager Hospitality, Travel & Ticketing for the Dutch market after finalising the studies Front Office Management and Leisure Management.
In November last year she made a switch to the global hospitality team where she is using her expertise and knowledge to conquer the international world of hospitality.


She is passionate about payment solutions for the hospitality industry, which in her opinion, combine the best of both worlds and she is always there to support her customers the best way she can.

Being there for customers to help them out, or just to have a good conversation, is her biggest drive to stay motivated and energized all day.
