Jelle Stouten<\/h2>\n

Jelle Stouten<\/h2>\n

Jelle is 24 years old and lives in Zierikzee. After studying Hoveniers level 4, he worked in the trade for four years. \u201cIt was nice work, but ultimately also very tough. I noticed that I wanted something else, with more challenge and future prospects.\u201d It turned out to be an important step towards a completely different sector.<\/p>\n

From introduction to Flikweert Vision<\/strong><\/p>\n

The move into engineering came unexpectedly. Jelle got into a conversation with Flikweert Vision. \u201cThat conversation got me thinking. Shortly afterwards, I was allowed to go for a job interview and things moved quickly: I could start work straight away.\u201d What attracted him was not only the content of the work, but especially the atmosphere and opportunities. \u201cIt is a young team, there are a lot of career opportunities and the company is growing incredibly fast. That made it a great opportunity for me. The fact that it is also close to home, I see as a big plus.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

From mechanic to transport coordination<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first few weeks took some getting used to. \u201cIt was totally different from what I was used to, but I was received very openly. Everyone was ready to help me, which felt good.\u201d Starting as a mechanic, he was soon given extra responsibility. \u201cI was given the task of loading trailers. Now I also get to manage transport. That gives me challenges and ensures I keep growing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Challenge and togetherness<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is precisely this variety that makes the work attractive. \u201cI can't do the same thing all day. What I enjoy most now is loading transport. That is a puzzle every time to place the machines properly and safely. Sometimes you encounter tricky situations, but through those challenges you learn a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

Growth and contribution to the vision<\/strong><\/p>\n

What motivates him is that he directly contributes to customer satisfaction. \u201cIt's nice that together you make sure the machine gets to the customer properly. When I then later see videos of mechanics on site, where everything is running as it should, it really energises me.\u201d He also feels his ambitions have been heard. \u201cI indicated that I wanted to develop further. From then on, I noticed that people really thought along with me about where opportunities lie for me. That gives confidence and motivates me to challenge myself further.\u201d<\/p>\n

Proud of projects<\/strong><\/p>\n

One project sticks with him. \u201cA while ago, we had a Divider run for the first time at a trade fair. We had all worked hard on that and it made me proud. Also, when service engineers later send videos from the customer site, you can see how our work connects well in practice. That gives energy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Working with pleasure<\/strong><\/p>\n

He says what sets Flikweert Vision apart is its focus on job satisfaction. \u201cIt's really high on the agenda here. And it is not just something that is said, but you notice that it is consciously invested in. Everyone comes to work with pleasure and you can feel that in the cooperation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leisure<\/strong><\/p>\n

In his spare time, he seeks relaxation and exercise. \u201cI run a lot, like to play football and still enjoy working in the garden. I also enjoy going out for a day with my girlfriend.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>","protected":false},"featured_media":1009,"parent":0,"template":"","verhaal_type":[19],"class_list":["post-1007","employee_story","type-employee_story","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","verhaal_type-medewerker-verhaal"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nBehind the vision | Jelle -
