Yann Weijer - Resumé

With nearly 10 years of experience as an HR and People Manager, I turn my passion for helping people into meaningful work every day. Combined with more than 10 years of experience in recruitment and investment banking sales, I am able to align the needs and ambitions of organizations with those of their employees, enabling sustainable and shared growth.

Most scaleups have a clear strategy, but they hit a ceiling because their organization hasn’t kept up with their ambition. Their growth isn’t limited by their market—it’s limited by their people system.

At UpScaling People, we close that gap. We connect your business strategy directly to daily execution by aligning leadership, teams, and structure. Using proven frameworks we build the accountability and clarity needed to turn your BHAG into a predictable reality.

Whether you need a strategic partner to sharpen your leadership or fractional HR to build a scalable foundation, we ensure your people are the engine of your growth, not the bottleneck. We help you build the organization that can actually achieve your ambition.
