Teamleader Manufacturing of Xeikon Digital Printers - Lier, Belgium
Jeroen has spent 4 years with the Digital Printing Solutions Division of Flint Group.
“I started my career at Xeikon like so many other people: at the bottom as assistant operator assembly at the manufacturing site in Lier.
In this function I learned the basics of assembling Xeikon engines. For me this was a real learning & development environment because there are several aspects that need to be taken into account. After that, I worked my way up to specialized operator: quality checking on the assembly line.
From that moment on I took every new chance that was given to me with both hands. For sure it was a tough at times to reach some goals but, ambitious as I am, that was part of my personal satisfaction.
Finally I got the chance of my life: I became Teamleader of the manufacturing department! I’ve been doing this for about 2.5 years now and I’m still very grateful to Flint Group for this opportunity. Despite my younger age it has always been my passion to work together with people and to reach goals as a team. This job is a mix of responsibilities, which all give me energy. At the same time I want to continue improving my leadership skills. This is possible because Flint Groups motivates its employees to follow training that is in line with your own personal and professional expectations. To be honest, I have to admit it is hard work, there are many things to take into account, but at the end this is the best school there is for me.
Leading a team is my dream job. I’m a people oriented person who strives to reach the perfect working environment every day, together with a team, to be able to deliver the best results.”
