LIFE AT VOORTMAN


Driven by technology and focusing on the people behind it: that is how we work at the Voortman Steel Group. We are a people company where everyone is given the space to develop. Where we work with passion on the finest steel structures and machinery. Where we think collaboratively with the customer and produce the optimum result together.


Where we feel responsible for our work and where entrepreneurialism predominates. Where we offer youngsters the opportunities and support their need to learn the trade. At Voortman Steel Group we keep both feet on the ground, with a view to the future.

LIFE AT VOORTMAN:
having fun together

Staff Association

Our Staff Association has over 300 members, who contribute a small amount each month for fun events and sporty activities throughout the year. Such as bites & kicks, get-togethers, barbecues and every other year we all go away for a weekend!

Indoor football competition

Every year we organize an indoor soccer competition where colleagues compete in teams for a trophy and eternal fame.

Voortman Ski Club

Each year the members of the Voortman Ski Club are looking forward to January, because that's when we leave for Austria for our annual ski trip. Three days of skiing, snowboarding and... Après-ski! Transportation, hotel, food & drinks and ski pass are all arranged by Voortman.

Pubquiz

One of the highlights of the year! During the pub quiz, teams compete against each other for a trophy and the glorious right to brag to colleagues for a year. Which team has the most knowledge?

Running Competition

We sponsor a local running competition. And of course we will then participate ourselves with a number of teams! Are you a beginning runner? No problem! We have set up a weekly training program so you will be fit at the start.

Voortman Sportswear

Vital people are important! As an organization we like to contribute to the fitness of our colleagues. Therefore you can purchase top quality Voortman sportswear at a significant discount.

Our culture

Common sense combined with professionalism and a passion for it predominate in our company. Do you have a good idea? Then go ahead and do it! You won't get anywhere if you don't try. Entrepreneurialism is in our blood. And it shows, you can feel it and see it wherever you are in our company.

We welcome new colleagues every month and celebrate a service anniversary almost as often. We believe in sharing knowledge and enjoy learning from each other. The level of experience of establised colleagues, combined with the fresh perspective of starters is – in our opinion – the basis for success and job satisfaction.

"DRIVEN BY TECHNOLOGY, WITH CARE FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WORK WITH US"

Our 5
core values

1 – Entrepreneurship

We love a challenge at Voortman! After all, we always look for the best solution. We draw up a plan and swing into action rapidly. Of course, not every plan is equally succesful but we don't let this daunt us. Instead, we look at how we can do better, learn from what didn't go well and keep improving ourselves.

2 - Craftmanship

We aim for the highest available quality in all our activities. We work constantly on improving in all areas. The market we operate in is changing rapidly and requires a flexible approach at all times. We are ib a constant lookout for new working methods and automation solutions. One of our conditions is: what we can do ourselves, we do in house.

3 – Passion for technology

Develop, improve and automate. We are constantly seeking the technological boundaries by combining our expertise with new technologies. This provides us with many new insights that we convert into user-friendly and futureproof solutions in our software and machines.

4 – Engagement

At Voortman, we invest in long-term relationships. We are a reliable partner for our customers and a loyal employer for our employees. We find job satisfaction and personal development important and encourage this. After all, growth is something we achieve together.

5 – Working together

Working hard and having fun is how we became successful. And yet we still have both feet firmly on the ground. We are a fanatical, young team and share our knowledge and experience with each other to achieve the best results.
