''Our team helps each other, and this makes me enjoy going to work.''

Within FrieslandCampina, I am a packaging operator trainee. I recently started at FrieslandCampina in Lochem and I already feel completely at home in the butter factory. There are many development opportunities here. For example, I am currently learning to drive a forklift and will soon start training to become a packaging operator. I am really looking forward to that!

I am proud of the clear future prospects and growth opportunities offered here. The atmosphere is always good with a great group of colleagues. Our team helps each other, and this makes me enjoy going to work. If you are in doubt, I would say: Just do it! - Leonie, Packaging operator
