Rabobank has named Dries Lagerberg as its new Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO), effective 1 June 2026. In this position, he will head the Group Sustainability Department and report directly to CEO Stefaan Decraene.
Lagerberg succeeds Aafke Keizer, who has led the sustainability function since 2022 and has recently moved into a new role within the bank. He has been acting as interim CSO in recent months and brings strong expertise in sustainability strategy and execution.
Over the past three years, Lagerberg has been part of Rabobank’s Group Sustainability Management Team, contributing to the development and advancement of the bank’s sustainability agenda.
“Sustainability is central to Rabobank’s cooperative identity,” Lagerberg said. “I look forward to continuing to work with colleagues and partners to accelerate our impact for members, clients, society, and future generations.”
His appointment provides continuity for Rabobank’s sustainability strategy and reinforces the bank’s ongoing commitment to driving positive impact for climate, nature, and people.
