Executive Board - Princess Máxima Center for pediatric oncology

Healthcare needs tech, We need the talent of young people to find new solutions for safeguarding the accessibility of our healthcare system.

The Princess Máxima Centre (PMC) is the national centre for pediatric oncology in the Netherlands, and the largest pediatric oncology centre in Europe. The PMC is a research hospital. The care is provided in close collaboration with various shared care centres. The integration of care and research, organized on a tumour-specific basis, leads to more healing and fewer harmful effects, before, during and after treatment. PMC employs approximately 1500 people, of whom 500 work in research.

In addition to her role as Co-CEO and COO/CFO at PMC, Gita Gallé is member of the Supervisory Board of Zorgbalans (elderly care) and Medisch Spectrum Twente (top clinical hospital). Previously she had various positions in healthcare, including CEO of the Deventer Hospital, COO of the Jeroen Bosch Hospital, and director of the NVZ (Dutch Assn of Hospitals). Earlier in her career she worked in management and marketing for KLM and local government organisation.

How did I unlock my potential?

I have deliberately gained experience in multiple sectors and organizations: in business, in knowledge institutions and in government. This has enabled me to develop my talent as a director in order to connect to the specific task of each organization. Guts, courage and leadership characterize my working style. My motto is: I’ve never done it before, so I can do it (and if not, I’ll learn it).
