Compliance
Voxius is leading in the mediation of (senior) compliance professionals for companies and law firms in the Netherlands. We combine in-depth knowledge of setting up compliance projects with a large network among compliance professionals.
Compliance Executive Search
Voxius Compliance has built a national reputation as a thought leader and is known as thé executive search firm for compliance talent. We closely follow developments within this field to best advise our clients. Because we have built in-depth industry knowledge, we can support our clients in translating their compliance strategy and goals into teams and people. From design to delivery: from organizational design and project planning to delivery of personnel for compliance departments.
Compliance Interim Management
Voxius also works in temporary projects with highly qualified candidates for the positions of (Chief) Compliance Officer in a variety of industries. The size of your company (listed or unlisted), your business strategy, the industry (regulated or unregulated) as well as the scope of your activities are some of the factors that determine to what extent your organization needs a professional compliance policy. An experienced interim compliance professional will help you build a compliance department to prevent damage to relationships, reputational damage and possible regulatory sanctions.
Compliance Consulting
Also for law and notary firms, compliance has become an increasingly large and important topic in recent years due to the increase and scope of compliance topics and developments in public opinion. Not only the internal compliance policy and compliance with all laws and regulations is leading, but vision on social issues is increasingly expected, in addition to the role as an advisor to clients on various topics.
Based on our experience, partly from deep compliance expertise in business, we can advise your team on, and help with, implementation and the development of related knowledge and skills. What sets our services apart from others is simple: we have walked in your shoes, understand the challenges and issues you and your team face on a daily and long-term basis, and offer a wide range of insights and proven solutions.
Compliance Trend Report
During the period September 2022 - May 2023, Voxius conducted confidential interviews with 58 ultimately responsible Compliance Professionals about the interpretation and perception of the compliance function within their own companies. This resulted in a trend report that provides insight into the current status of compliance, trends and ambitions for the coming years. Read the report here >
Compliance Round Table
Since 2015, we have organized Round Tables on a variety of compliance topics. Compliance and Legal professionals with (partial) responsibility for compliance, find it valuable to externally review their company's policies. The setting of the Compliance Round Tables is a safe environment to discuss many, often precarious topics with other compliance professionals dealing with the same issues.

Review of the March 19, 2024 Voxius Compliance Round Table:
Prepare for the evolution of Third Party Due Diligence!
On March 19, as many as 50 dedicated compliance professionals gathered to discuss how to anticipate the upcoming Third Party Due Diligence requirements. This topic drew so much interest that the room was nearly bursting at the seams, forcing Voxius to work with a waiting list for the first time in years.
Background:
Legal obligations regarding third-party screening and reporting will be significantly expanded in the coming years. The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requires large companies to report on various aspects ranging from carbon emissions to social impact, including involvement in human rights violations in the supply chain.
The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) is an international scheme designed to support companies in identifying and mitigating sustainability risks in their supply chains and procurement activities. Both directives are part of the European Green Deal, an ambitious strategy to make the EU economy more sustainable.
The CSRD is already in effect for large companies screening their supply chains. Soon, states will be required to transpose the CSDD into national law, forcing companies to screen their supply chains to meet reporting requirements related to human rights and environmental standards. Germany has already voluntarily legislated Third Party Due Diligence, and other European countries will soon follow.
The proposed legislation raises many questions: How far back in the chain should you go? How do you control suppliers effectively? How do you deal with administrative burdens? Are there appropriate tools available? These questions and more were discussed at length at the recent Compliance Round Table.
Our host Marieke Bax, Group Ethics & Compliance Officer at SHV Energy, gave an inspiring introduction about her role, followed by an engaging presentation by Cherieke Doek, Director Global Compliance Program Management, and Celine Smeets, Head of Corporate & Regulatory at the raw materials and chemicals group ICL Group. They shared their strategy for implementing future requirements and emphasized the importance of collaboration with internal stakeholders. Their pioneering work included risk identification and assessment, as well as the use of a "supplier risk scorecard" linked to existing screening tools. The speakers emphasized the importance of open dialogue with suppliers to jointly work on improvement where needed. In addition, they provided insight into how different tasks are distributed within their organizations, including compliance, finance, HR and ESG departments.
The presentation by ICL Group was followed by a lively plenary discussion led by Roland Notermans of the Compliance Academy as moderator. This interaction continued during the drinks, resulting in a very successful meeting where the valuable input of all participants was central.
Voxius organizes Compliance Round Tables on various compliance topics at least twice a year, as well as other knowledge and networking events. If you would like to stay informed about our initiatives, please feel free to contact us at compliance@voxius.nl.
