EVS announces CFO transition following five years of record growth

Veerle De Wit to leave EVS in July 2026 after nearly five years as CFO; Christophe Piron joins as interim CFO while succession process continues

>      Liège, Belgium | May 21, 2026

 

EVS today announced the departure of Veerle De Wit, CFO.  EVS and Veerle mutually agreed to end their collaboration in early July 2026 as she moves on to pursue new professional opportunities, after nearly five years with the company.

Since joining EVS in 2021, Veerle, as part of EVS Leadership team, has played an important role in supporting the company’s transformation and growth trajectory. During her tenure, EVS achieved five consecutive years of record revenue growth, while further strengthening its operational discipline, financial organization, and international development.

To ensure a smooth transition, Veerle will remain part-time available to support the company until the end of September 2026.

The process to appoint a new permanent CFO is currently ongoing, with the objective of welcoming a successor later this year. In the meantime, Christophe Piron has joined EVS as CFO ad interim to ensure continuity during the transition period. 

Christophe brings extensive international financial and leadership experience across publicly listed, industrial, and technology-driven environments. Over the course of his career, he has led major transformation programs, M&A activities, financing operations, and performance improvement initiatives, while supporting international business growth and operational excellence. He will support EVS in maintaining strong financial discipline and ensuring a smooth transition over the coming months.

Serge Van Herck, CEO of EVS, commented: 

“After nearly five years of strong contribution to EVS and an important role in supporting five consecutive years of profitable record revenue generation, Veerle has decided to pursue a new chapter in her professional career. On behalf of the Board and the entire EVS team, I would like to sincerely thank her for her commitment, professionalism, and valuable contribution to the development of EVS over the past years. Veerle has been a trusted partner throughout an important phase in the company’s evolution, and we wish her all the very best for the future.” 

Veerle De Wit added: 

“After five rewarding years at EVS, I have decided - together with Serge and the Board - that the time is right to hand over the CFO role as the company enters its next phase. We have made significant progress securing the company’s foundations and setting up the structure to realize future growth. We have stronger structure, better connectivity across the organization, and we have increased our ability to scale and allocate capital with discipline. It has been a privilege to serve as CFO of EVS and I had the luxury of working alongside passionate and talented teams.

I would like to thank my colleagues, the Leadership Team, and the Board for the trust and collaboration during my time at EVS. I leave the company with great confidence in its future and look forward to the next step in my professional journey.”
