Denise's career started in the travel industry, but after moving to Goeree-Overflakkee she looked for a new job with more challenge and closer to home. "The vacancy for sales consultant immediately appealed to me because of the diversity of work and the development opportunities. My first interview went well, we clicked right away. When I was given a tour of the production I was impressed and surprised. You don't realize that there is such a world behind the making of printed circuit boards."
Challenge
"I wanted more challenge, and I got it! The printed circuit boards that we assemble are very complex. They are used in advanced applications such as chip machines, medical equipment or products for space travel. This means that we work very precisely and that the printed circuit boards are extensively tested before they leave the factory. Both the production process and the markets in which we operate are complex, so I am still learning every day!"
Support for sales department
As a sales consultant, Denise supports the account manager of the sales team that focuses on the semiconductor industry. "You can see it as the link between purchasing, planning and sales. In my role, I am responsible for handling quotation requests. For this, I talk to the buyers and project engineers. With the help of their input, I make a suitable offer for the customer. You really need each other for this. I also answer questions from customers and suppliers. One of the questions we get, for example: 'can an order be delivered earlier?' Then I find out whether this is possible and how. We discuss the current orders with our team every week and we also have various customer visits. My work is therefore very varied. I like that I can continue to learn in this way and work together a lot with my colleagues.”
Open and helpful
“The atmosphere here is especially great. Everyone is open and helpful. For me, this was a completely new industry and also quite an exciting step, but it now feels more and more familiar. That is really because of the colleagues. They are always ready to help me when necessary, but also challenge me to develop myself further. That feels great!”
