Mick Jansen

1 March 2024 marked twelve and a half years since our colleague Mick Jansen joined the company. It was a great reason to celebrate, and we took the opportunity to ask Mick why he has chosen to remain at VB-Airsuspension for all this time. He told us:

"I actually joined the company as a student, and never left! So, in reality I’ve been with VB-Airsuspension for a bit longer than 12 and a half years... Over this time, I have witnessed and been part of the change and growth happening VBA, which has been a great privilege. The working atmosphere is very positive, and I am challenged and given a great deal of freedom in my work, all of which are huge pluses. Not only that, but it's great to be working on the development of such fantastic products!"

MARK VAN BUUREN

9 January 2024 marks twelve and a half years since our colleague Mark van Buuren joined the company. It was a great reason to celebrate, so we took the opportunity to ask Mark why he has chosen to remain at VB for all this time. He told us:

"In fact, I've worked for VB-Airsuspension for a bit more than twelve and a half years: I did my final placement with VBA as part of my Automotive Engineering course at Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences. This adventure (genuinely, since I had to move there from the other side of the Netherlands) was so beneficial for both sides that I ended up joining VB-Airsuspension – twelve and a half years ago."

JULIÉN VAN CLEEMPUT

On 16 August 2021, our colleague Julién van Cleemput had worked in our organisation for twelve and a half years. It was a great reason to celebrate, and we took the opportunity to ask Mark why he has chosen to remain at VB for all this time. He told us:

"Twelve and a half years? In fact.... it's actually a bit longer than that....

I am currently the Area Sales Manager for Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia and Italy, among other areas. The 'VB-Italie' subsidiary was set up at the start of this year, which means I can now turn my attention to Spain and Portugal. It has been more than twelve and a half years now, but each day is just as challenging and varied as the last, and I continue to enjoy working at VB-Airsuspension and all this entails."

“It’s all about people!”

To continue to develop as an organisation, it is important to find the right employees in the right places. What's more, retaining the right employees in the right places is equally important. These are two major challenges that are faced by every organisation. This naturally requires the necessary care and attention. Of course, we also see the developments in the labour market and that it offers numerous opportunities for different positions.

It is no longer a matter of course that people continue to work for the same employer for long periods of time. As an organisation, we therefore believe it is extremely important to maintain continuous commitment, connection and optimum cooperation with our employees. It is fair to say that we are doing a reasonable job of this. Over the years, we have had the privilege to celebrate several anniversaries together in the workplace. This is great confirmation of the job satisfaction and enjoyment within our organisation. It's something we are really proud of!
