Working at trinamics according to Rutger

This is my story

How did you end up at Trinamics?
I moved to Breda over 10 years ago. At that time, I was looking for a position within the recruitment industry where I would have a lot of responsibility and freedom. I came across a vacancy for a Recruitment Consultant at Trinamics, and it appealed to me. When I went for the interview, I was almost immediately hired. This was partly due to my relevant work experience. It was great to find a vacancy that ticked all the boxes!

What was your first impression during your onboarding period?
That was a while ago now... I had the advantage of having gained a few years of work experience in the staffing industry and was already familiar with technical recruitment. So, I could quickly start working fairly independently. My then-manager taught me the finer points of the job. I'm still grateful to him for that. It's truly a job where you learn by doing. Making mistakes is allowed and even encouraged, as that's where you learn the most.

What exactly does your job entail?
I have a diverse role. On one hand, I'm responsible for onboarding and coaching our internal commercial colleagues, with the aim of helping them develop. On the other hand, I continuously take the lead in projects aimed at improving our processes. Additionally, I'm closely involved in ensuring quality and compliance with regulations, and I work closely with the strategic management team on policy development.

Working at Trinamics means...
Having the opportunity to exercise entrepreneurship while being an employee, enjoying yourself, and seeing that hard work really pays off. The best part of the job is that it never gets boring. You're doing a wide variety of tasks, but with clear goals in mind. It's exciting when you can motivate all stakeholders, both internally and externally, to work together towards a common goal, and see the results.

How have you been able to develop yourself within Trinamics?
Over the past 10 years, I've managed to progress from Junior Recruitment Consultant to Performance & Recruitment Manager. I've been able to take a few significant steps, and I'm glad that Trinamics has provided me with the opportunity to develop myself.

I always start my (work)day with...
A blended vegetable and fruit protein shake along with a nice cup of coffee.

My workday is successful when...
I've been able to contribute to the development of our internal colleagues and process improvements.
