What is your Hays story?

I am Content Marketer at HAYS Netherlands. A cool job that I really wanted to do. I had previously worked for two years as a recruitment consultant at another organisation, so I wanted to make a step in my career and see the other side. Something I was interested in and where I had gained knowledge from my studies - a good mix between recruitment and marketing.

Recently, our team merged with the Belgian team, so I now work for both countries, which has deepened my position and given me even more international flair.

What is the best thing about your job?

I like the teamwork with direct marketing colleagues but also with sales, HR and other stakeholders. Building a project or campaign together and contributing to generating business for the consultants. But above all the versatility; one moment you are busy with a social media campaign, the next with a content report or an internal event. That in a mix of countries and specialisms is just fine and fascinating!

Which Hays moment will you never forget?

I remember the annual Hays party best. I had just been working at Hays for 3 weeks and then 'the annual conference' arrived - completely in Peaky Blinders style. I was thrown in at the deep end in the process of organising it, but it was a really fun, informal way to get to know everyone! From the management team to the business and my own marketing colleagues. Wonderful!
