What can new employees expect of VION?
VION is a leading food and ingredients company that is active in a competitive environment. As a result, employees are always aware of the need to do their absolute best, to think ahead and to deliver top quality – whether that be services or products. Of course, you are supported in this by your colleagues and you are also offered opportunities for further education and development. For VION, the next few years will be marked by our strategic vision: Balancing the future. In brief, this means 'better instead of more'. VION employees can grow along with that ambition to achieve innovation and quality improvement. Furthermore, we have a social responsibility approach that aims to provide current and future generations with sustainably produced food products and ingredients.
What does VION expect of its employees?
Of course we expect everybody to have a positive and constructive attitude and to be professional in everything they do. A drive for performance, shaping the future, motivating & leading others, and leveraging one's own strengths are also essential. Enthusiasm and an entrepreneurial spirit are important: you should want to be the best in the food and ingredients markets, where the competition is fierce every day. VION makes the difference in the market by going that extra mile and by being innovative. We expect our employees to make that effort as well. And you must not be afraid of changes: go-getters with initiative suit VION!
How would you describe VION's work culture?
VION is a multinational company with one strategy, but whose individual business units can operate autonomously. The company is marked by its flat organisation and fast decision-making structures. We have little bureaucracy. The working atmosphere on our sites is open and pleasant. Teams also often organise various local activities to show their commitment to the local communities.
Can I make a career at VION?
Absolutely. The advantage of a large company is that it offers opportunities and possibilities to ambitious people who show potential. Employees with talent can easily get themselves noticed at VION and shape their careers, supported by specially tailored management development programs.
What motivates you to work for VION?
VION is a company that is still developing strongly. It is an international business, and has its own distinct identity because of its close bond with the agricultural sector. The freedom to shape our company's successful future, together with the colleagues in my team, is not only fantastic from a professional point of view, but it is also great fun!
