Leen De Witte new Media Relations & Community Manager

Leen brings extensive journalistic experience to the role, having spent the past fourteen years at VRT, where she held a variety of positions within the broadcaster's news department.

After starting her career at BRUZZ and as a radio newsreader for MNM, she went on to become a political editor specialising in Flemish and European affairs. Since 2021, she has been one of the familiar voices of De Ochtend on Radio 1.

Based in Brussels and originally from the Brussels outskirts, Leen has an excellent knowledge of the city and its surrounding region. Her background in journalism, communications and building professional relationships makes her a valuable addition to our organisation.

Leen succeeds Mathias Declercq in the role. Until her official start on 1 September, Filip Van Doorslaer will continue as Communication Manager ad interim to ensure a smooth transition.
