A new challenge in the maritime industry.
Before joining Lavastica, Joeri was already active in the maritime sector. For eight years, he worked at a similar company, where he was responsible for selling ship spare parts and technical products. "I still enjoyed the work, but I felt it was time to broaden my horizons. It was my first real job after finishing school, and I was curious to see how other companies operated."
He was already familiar with the industry, and Lavastica offered him a new environment, new opportunities, and a fresh challenge. Looking back on his five years at Lavastica, Joeri does so with great satisfaction. "I’ve seen the company grow, I’ve been able to develop myself, and I’ve built great relationships with both customers and colleagues. That’s why I still enjoy working here every day."
Growing alongside the company.
The growth of Lavastica has brought not only opportunities, but also challenges.
"Sometimes you're figuring things out all over again. Processes change, teams grow, and not everything is set in stone yet. But that’s exactly what makes it interesting.
You truly become part of the company’s development. You can see the results of that growth, and you know you've contributed to it yourself. That’s incredibly motivating." Being involved in that journey is what gives Joeri energy.
From customer contact to real relationships.
As a Senior Account Manager, Joeri’s work revolves largely around customers. And that’s exactly what he enjoys most about his role.
"Customer contact gives meaning to what you do. At the end of the day, you're not working for a system or an order, you're working for people."He regularly visits customers together with his colleagues. Sometimes to discuss an ongoing project, and sometimes simply to have a cup of coffee and strengthen the relationship.
"Recently, we went out for dinner with a customer in Belgium. At the beginning of the evening, we were practically strangers. By the end, it felt like we were leaving as friends. Building strong customer relationships makes the work even more enjoyable. It becomes about much more than just products or services."
An employer that invests in its people.
Besides the work itself, Joeri highly values the way Lavastica treats its employees. "A lot is organised for the team. From company trips and travel opportunities to barbecues and activities such as football or padel. The company really invests in keeping people engaged and connected." One of his favourite memories is a company trip to Athens, where colleagues spent time together outside of work and strengthened their bonds.
