Maurice van den Hoek is EY-Parthenon Netherlands Leader. With more than 30 years of experience at EY, he advises private equity investors, corporates and management teams on acquisitions, value creation, transformations and exits. He has been with EY since 1993 and gained international experience during his assignment with EY in London.
Maurice is recognized for his extensive experience in the Dutch private equity market and has led numerous domestic and cross-border transactions across a wide range of industries, including technology, healthcare, logistics, industrial products, energy and business services. He combines deep financial expertise with strategic insight to help clients make informed investment decisions and create sustainable value.
As EY-Parthenon Netherlands Leader, Maurice is focused on further strengthening the firm's position as the leading advisor on strategy, transactions and transformation. He works closely with investors, boards and management teams to help them navigate increasingly complex business environments shaped by geopolitical uncertainty, technological disruption and artificial intelligence.
Known for his direct, pragmatic and collaborative style, Maurice believes the real success of a transaction is not measured at signing or closing, but by the value that is created afterwards. Clients value his independent perspective, commercial judgment and willingness to challenge assumptions when making critical investment decisions. This philosophy has helped him build long-term relationships with both international and Dutch clients.
Areas of focus:
“Successful investments are not measured by closing a deal, but by the value they create afterwards. I enjoy helping clients make better decisions, navigate uncertainty and unlock opportunities for sustainable growth. Every transaction is different, every client challenge is unique, and that continuous combination of strategy, people and execution is what makes this profession so rewarding.”
