It was a pleasure to develop the new website for Henrie Verbunt HR Advies. This project was a great opportunity to deploy some of my first custom-built plugins, making it a foundational and enjoyable endeavor. I’d like to share a look at the business and the work we accomplished.
Henrie Verbunt HR Advies (Netherlands / International)
Henrie Verbunt HR Advies is an HR consultancy firm based in Reeuwijk, the Netherlands. They specialize in providing strategic HR advice to organizations, with core expertise in several key areas:
- HR Transformation and Organizational Development
- Mergers & Acquisitions (including HR Due Diligence and Integration)
- Compensation, Benefits, and Job Evaluation
- International HR Matters
The practice is led by Henrie Verbunt, who also contributes actively to the Dutch HR knowledge platform HRKracht, where he writes on current legislation and industry trends.
The Website Project
The website is built on WordPress using the OnePress theme. The goal was to create a foundational site that is easy to manage while being readily extensible for future functionality.
A key feature is a custom Ajax Category Filter. This allows most content to be added as standard posts within specific categories. The filter then dynamically displays posts from a selected category in a list or grid layout, creating a smooth, modern user experience without page reloads.
For the design, I developed a custom plugin to simplify theme color management. The plugin provides pre-defined color scheme presets that I tailored to the client’s preferred color palette. The client can now easily switch the entire website’s appearance by simply selecting their chosen preset from the WordPress Customizer, ensuring a consistent and professional look.
For selecting where to show the social media and contact icons and for showing the client logo slider on pages, I made some custom templates that can be selected when adding a new page or post.
The new website is now live at https://verbunt-hradvies.nl, serving as the new digital home for Henrie Verbunt HR Advies.
