Eric van Deijck has been with Mars for nearly forty years. He started in Veghel as an engineer, worked on major projects in various roles and countries, and returned to the Netherlands in 2019. In his free time, he enjoys riding his bike or motorcycle, but he also covers quite a few miles at the pension fund. After four years as secretary of the Accountability Council, he is now, on the eve of the transition, making the move to the board.

The board of Mars Pension Fund has completed its review of the Transition Plan and accepted the assignment from Mars and the Works Councils to implement the new pension plan. This marks an important milestone on the path to the new pension plan.

The start of Mars Pension Fund’s new pension plan as per January 1, 2027 was not feasible. Mars Pension Fund is now expected to introduce the new pension plan on January 1, 2028.
