From question to insight: “I make data speak in a way everyone understands”
As a Data Reporting Analyst at Royal Swinkels, Noor van Dijk is always asking the same question: how can we use data to make better decisions? She operates at the intersection of business and IT, helping to uncover bottlenecks and opportunities in the supply chain.
From beer tank to booking: “I map out the whole alphabet.”
As a Business Process Expert at Royal Swinkels, Robert Kerstens makes sure that commercial and operational processes behind the scenes run smoothly. He connects the business side with IT; spotting bottlenecks, driving improvements, and linking departments together. “From invoicing to beer taps, I want to know how it all works.”
Brewing as a team effort: “We’re all equal, and that’s what makes us strong”
As a Process Operator at Royal Swinkels, Amanda Vleugel has been working at the heart of the brewery for over twelve years. Together with her team, she brews a wide range of beers, from Swinckels and Cornet to Bavaria 0.0. “No two days are the same. It’s a natural product, so you’re constantly adjusting. And that’s what makes the job so much fun.”
