Introducing our new Head of Business Development, Neil van Heerden

A track record of international commercial leadership
Neil brings more than 20 years of international B2B commercial leadership experience across financial services, payments, telecommunications and digital transformation to his new role heading the sales team at Confitex Technology.
His senior positions at American Express and Ascend Money/TrueMoney have given him extensive experience in new business development, go-to-market strategy, pricing, international trade, strategic partnerships and complex commercial negotiations.
As our new Head of Business Development, he leads the front end of our global commercial pipeline – identifying new markets, winning retail and brand partners and opening new territories across the US, Europe, Africa, the Asia-Pacific region and the Middle East.
Neil holds an Executive MBA from London Business School and a Postgraduate Diploma in Economics from the University of London. He is based at our Phuket, Thailand office and is a keen triathlete outside work.
“Confitex Technology’s reusable absorbent hygiene solutions offer a genuine commercial opportunity, not just a worthy cause,” he says. “If you’re a retailer, brand owner or distributor thinking about the future of sustainable hygiene, let’s talk.” Connect with Neil on LinkedIn.
