During his playing career, Brom played as a midfielder with Zwarte Schapen, VSV, Limburgia and Telstar.[2]
After retiring as a player, Brom managed Vitesse Arnhem from 1969 to 1972, Fortuna SC from 1972 to 1976,[3][4] Sparta Rotterdam from 1976 to 1978,[5] Ajax from 1978 to 1979,[6][7] RWD Molenbeek from 1981 to 1982,[8] and FC Zwolle from 1982 to 1984.
He was dismissed by Ajax's new chairman Ton Harmsen in 1979 after allegedly taking payments and gifts (a horse and the meat of a whole pig), meant for the players, from an amateur side who played Ajax in pre-season.[9]
Brom died in Amsterdam on 29 October 2008, of Parkinson's disease.[10]
