Risk engineering
No business can eliminate risk entirely, and today's environment makes that clearer than ever. Climate change, energy transition, and tightening sustainability requirements in construction are all reshaping the risk landscape. Organisations and their insurers face a broader, more complex set of exposures. Effective risk management has become a core part of running a successful business: it turns strategic risks into opportunities and helps you keep losses to a minimum.
Our risk engineers conduct thorough risk assessments that give you a clear picture of where your business is vulnerable and what you can do about it. A proactive, preventive approach saves you time, money, and stress compared to dealing with problems after the fact. It also makes your risks more insurable, which translates into lower premiums over time. The result is genuine confidence that your business is well protected by the right fire and liability insurance cover.

Eelko van den Hooff, Specialist Risk Engineering
After spending years as a Claims Expert in fire damage, I moved to the Risk Engineering team at Meijers. That background in claims gives me a clear view of how insurers assess fire risks and what it takes to manage them well. My motto says it best: 'I used to arrive when everything was black with soot. Now I make sure it never gets that way.' Working closely with clients, I help them understand risk prevention and find practical ways to reduce exposure and avoid damage.
I believe strongly in prevention and plain communication. At Meijers, our focus is on strengthening clients' risk profiles so they can secure better coverage terms and premiums. Clients come to us because we bring together real claims experience and deep risk engineering expertise, giving them confident, hands-on guidance for managing fire and property risks.
Pascal Saura, Practice Leader Risk Engineering
With more than 14 years of experience as a risk engineering specialist, with a focus on fire risk, I am well positioned to advise clients on practical measures that strengthen business continuity. Clear communication and well-managed expectations help clients raise their risk profile to a higher level. A stronger risk profile does not just improve business continuity; it also improves insurability. Both matter in the long run. What drives me is using that expertise to make a real difference, particularly for clients working through risk improvement challenges. That is exactly the kind of problem I enjoy tackling.
