Hooymeijer is a social business to me. Why would I go to a different employer? Never change a winning formula. If there is something I do not like, I can always talk about it and people listen to me. The company is open about its facts and figures, for example. Personally, I do not really care about that, but it is great that the option is there. I am part of a wonderful team and the best part is that I can go to work by bike.

The freedom I have and the trust they put in me as a person make Hooymeijer a great place to work for me. It does not even feel like work, actually. In my position, I get the best of both worlds: communication and people. That is the ideal combination for me. The atmosphere is great here. Everyone contributes in their own way and is therefore equally important. I have the freedom to combine my work and my private life as I see fit. Where else do you get that?

I love the diversity of my job. I particularly enjoy solving problems. We do this work with a bunch of great colleagues. We trust, respect and appreciate each other. We also think about how to combine our work and our private lives. There is always some flexibility in our working hours if we need some time for ourselves. That is very important to me.

I was here as a small boy when the warehouse was opened in 1983. When I was 10 years old, I was driving along with Ron van der Bruggen. The fact that he still works here really says something. Both of my parents also worked here. Before I started here myself, fourteen years ago, I worked for other companies first. The great thing here at Hooymeijer is that I can do all kinds of things. One day, I may be driving a truck, while the next day I am doing all kinds of jobs on the site. I love that diversity. The atmosphere is also great here.

Compared to my last job, things happen on a smaller scale here and the personal contact within the organisation is better. I love the versatility here at Hooymeijer. We can offer a wide range of services. After a hard day’s work, there is always room to discuss the week and share a drink with colleagues. Having fun is a vital aspect of what we do here.

I started here as an intern and basically never left – with the exception of a brief excursion of a few months. I was glad to be back with Hooymeijer. This is a great place to work; no two days are ever the same. On top of that, I believe we do great and remarkable things here at Hooymeijer. I am part of a small, close-knit team that makes me feel comfortable. There is room for development, which is important to me.

I ended up at Hooymeijer after the takeover of Nico Kind. It was not entirely by choice, you might say. Everything was supposed to stay the same, but it did not. That bothered me. Still, the atmosphere was great from the onset. A few years ago, I was not doing so well personally. Hooymeijer really came through for me then and supported me in every way. They were right there at my side. I am still grateful for that. My salary always comes on time, that is important too. Things are very informal here. I am not afraid of talking to the owner if I run into him outside work.

This job is really my thing. It suits me. I learn something new every day, I am surrounded by people. I need that. Hooymeijer is an established name and takes good care of its people. For years, I had my own transport business. In this growing economy, it might be appealing to be an independent entrepreneur again, but I am done with that. I am doing just fine right here!

I work at a great company, with a great team and I love my job very much. That is reason enough to stay. I am happy when I get in my truck in the morning and I am happy when I go home in the evening. I have been promoted to coffee manager, just because my colleagues are too lazy to do it themselves, but that is fine with me. I make everyone happy when I bring them a fresh cup of coffee.

The people are what make Hooymeijer for me. People with the right attitude. I have a lot of freedom here and plenty of opportunities to develop myself. Every day, I face a new challenge and I have the chance to really dig into something. Most importantly, though, is that we laugh an awful lot here.

I started out by working for Jan’s business. We did a lot of work for Hooymeijer back then, so I knew everyone already. When Hooymeijer took over the business, it felt like coming home. A few years ago, things went sour with the planner at the time and I left the company. Meanwhile, I kept texting and calling my former colleagues. I could not let Hooymeijer go. When they were looking for another driver, I came right back. Things are more personal here. I know what is going on in the rest of the organisation.

As a young employee, you get a lot of opportunities. If you seize them, you can achieve great things here. I love the diversity of the organisation most, both in the work we do and in the people themselves. In spite of the differences, it feels like one big family.

I first started here as an intern. The thing that stood out to me right away is that you can walk up to anyone. I was not treated like just an intern, my input really mattered. After my internship, I was offered a contract. I seized that opportunity with both hands. When I decided to start my master’s programme, Hooymeijer was very flexible about the situation. It does not matter when I work my hours, as long as I work them.

The atmosphere is great here, among drivers and between drivers and planners. People communicate with each other in a normal manner. When I ask for something like a day off, that can usually be arranged. I am not treated like a robot, but as a person. If I make a mistake, that bothers me enough as it is. I am not looking to be yelled at as well. That does not happen here.

There is an informal atmosphere here. There are no differences in the way we communicate with different levels of the business. That is great to me. It is important to me that there is room for personal attention and that people listen to what I have to say. At Hooymeijer, we have great plans for the future and I would love to stay involved.
