Your job as an HR professional

Help our colleagues grow

You are able to effectively communicate what Van Leeuwen stands for to new colleagues. Our pipes are not just an end product. They are also the start of our customers' ambition and drive for sustainable growth, creation and development. At Van Leeuwen we want to be an indispensable part of that ambition. If new employees want to join us in this endeavor, they are most welcome to do so.

I couldn't wish for a better team.

Fenti Kertasari started off as a salesperson at Van Leeuwen Distribution Indonesia in 2001. She rose to become the company’s Managing Director. She is above all proud of her team. ‘Our colleagues make the greatest possible effort to provide customers with the best quality pipes and tubes, and service. This is crucial in our business where being a reliable partner determines your success.’

Here you can develop yourself further

Would you enjoy thinking about how Van Leeuwen can remain an attractive employer for young talent and experienced colleagues? And would you love helping colleagues move forward professionally and personally? Then at Van Leeuwen you have come to the right place. We will give you every opportunity to demonstrate and further develop your HR skills.

What does your day look like working in HR?

As an HR employee, you have a varied agenda. You advise colleagues at all levels on training and development, on their next career step, or on staying fit and healthy at work. This means that one moment you will be sitting around the table with a manager to discuss his or her next career step. Next, you have an appointment with a logistics employee from the warehouse about whether he or she is open to job rotation. Or you might be discussing with a colleague how he or she can get back on track after being absent. You can quickly and effectively switch between our various employee groups.
Together with your HR colleagues, you constantly think about new ways to attract talent and improve our recruitment and selection processes. You will also answer HR-related questions from team managers who regularly come to you asking for advice.
In 2022, you will also be working on the rollout of a new leadership program, a new state-of-the-art e-learning platform, and a new trainee program to attract and develop new young talent within our company worldwide. You will also work together on the design and implementation of new development paths for each individual employee. Each year we discuss the progress made with colleagues, thus working towards a permanent learning culture.
