Inside Sales Account Manager

I previously worked for Van der Lee Rope Factory, which was acquired by Hendrik Veder Group a few years ago. Due to the longer commute, I hesitated about staying, but after a few weeks, I built a great relationship with my new colleagues and realized this was the right place for me. It's an environment where hard work is valued, communication is direct, and there's also room for humor.

Hendrik Veder is a company that supplies and manufactures materials for the maritime industry. I've been active in the maritime sector for years and was searching for a company that doesn't just sell services but also provides tangible products and materials, often the size of trucks or even larger. That fascinates me. I enjoy being able to supply these types of materials. At Hendrik Veder Group, we're closely connected to the customer and the product, so it's not just a regular office job. You're involved with the company and the product, which gives you a good understanding of what you're working with. The team is excellent, and I have a strong connection with the people who work here. I sensed that during the initial interviews, and it turned out to be true.

Financial Director

In my previous job, I worked for a large company with its finance department based in the USA. Advancing my career in the Netherlands wasn't an option. Hendrik Veder Group is also an international company but smaller in scale, which allows me to be involved in all business processes across various entities. I love that I can contribute to the company's development in growth, sustainability, and IT.

While studying, I was looking for a job to fill my free time and found an administrative role that would complement my studies well. I found Hendrik Veder Group to be the ideal employer to balance both because they provided the flexibility I needed for my studies. After the initial interview, it was clear that it was a good match, and within two weeks, I had started working here.
