Agustín will take office on 15 June. Monique will support the organisation until end of October to ensure a smooth transition of leadership.
Agustín, who hails from Argentina and is also a Belgian citizen, started his career at BEUC in 2010. He is currently BEUC’s Director of Legal and Economic Affairs, a member of the management team, and leading the organisation’s competition and financial services priorities.
