Tobias Grinwis
Head of Investments
Started from the bottom now he’s here: Tobias (Tobi) started as an intern with Lendahand back when it was just the co-founders and eventually grew to become the Head of Investments. Another proud graduate of Erasmus University, Tobias once spent five months in the African bush in a conservation team at a wildlife reserve. Fun fact: In 30 years, all in all, he’s had the privilege of taking care of 19 dogs. And no, not because the mortality rate is that high!
