The complexity of my work really appeals to me. It’s not ‘just’ powder that we bring to the market. Our products must meet strict regulations, be of high quality, and contribute to the health of both people and the planet. I always wanted to do work that truly matters, and I found that here at Danone.
Due to the constant flow of changing information and technology, our team must always be flexible and able to adapt quickly. We are a mix of new, ambitious team members and seasoned colleagues who have been at Danone for 35 years. This mix makes our team very diverse, keeps us on our toes, and ensures that we keep learning from each other.
Danone always encourages you to go for it. Got a great idea? Then there's room to turn your plans into reality. Currently, we are using new technologies to optimize plant-based baby food, and guiding this process from the initial recipe to the final product is fantastic. Seeing what was once just an idea in your head come to life is an amazing feeling!
In my 23 years at Danone, I have done a lot of different things - from specification management to product development for medical products and from process validation to, now, leadership. At Danone, you are never done learning. While I am currently developing new management skills, I'm happy to stay involved in the substantive work as well. The ideal combination, if you ask me, and another beautiful new step in a very diverse career at Danone.
