I am valued as a professional at Forexx
I appreciate that I am valued as a professional at Forexx. I know it’s not always easy to place the right people to the right position, but for me it turned out really well. Forexx have pointed out that they are more than a workforce placement company, long-term relations with their professionals being highly valued. I appreciate the tight connection they are trying to maintain with their employees. Since we are spread throughout the entirety of the Netherlands, it can be easy to overlook the fact people feel the need to belong, even at their job, so the efforts of Forexx to connect to us are necessary and appreciated.
Forexx did a good job in relocation
Forexx have provided me with a connection, in my case to Royal van Lent. Even as a talented engineer, it can be difficult to reach out to companies and get noticed. The entire process of us relocating to the Netherlands, where possible, was also handled by Forexx, which is quite helpful and appreciated.
A nice network within Forexx
I contribute myself by being a valued addition to Forexx’s client. By being a professional and well suited for the position, I am reiterating the idea that Forexx is able to place the right people to the right positions, which serves to increase their client’s confidence in them. Beyond that, I have colleagues from Forexx alongside me with which to share knowledge, we are learning and developing together.

Work you can be proud of
“Thanks to Forexx I am executing a project at a client where I can perfectly apply all of my experience: Damen Yachting. As a technical specialist I am pivotal in the entire yacht construction process. I maintain contact with suppliers and support my colleagues from different disciplines with information and advice, so they can do their job the best way possible. Nothing is greater than seeing a yacht sail away after 3 to 5 years. That always makes me very proud of what we have achieved together.”
A warm welcome at Forexx
“I have always known I was a team player, but Forexx has reinforced that feeling. When I started working at Forexx, I immediately felt welcome. Everyone is friendly, helpful and involved. At Damen my manager from Forexx regularly checks in to see if I am doing well and what could be improved. This way Forexx helps me to keep challenging myself and to keep growing.”
At Forexx you become the best version of yourself
“Besides the beautiful work I do at Damen, I help Forexx grow our network of talents from different disciplines. At Forexx we bring these talents together in an environment in which they can bring out the best in each other. By reinforcing each other, but also by learning from and with each other. We also work on a valuable educational programme. This way, every colleague can fulfil their ambitions and Forexx can support clients in every way possible to pursue their ambitions!”
In her profession as senior licensing officer, Jessica has basically seen it all. But she wants more! And she gets that opportunity at Forexx, where she can draw on her knowledge and experience to get the best out of herself and others.
Thinking along about the future of Forexx
“At Forexx I have a really cool task: I can build and expand the unit licensing for civil engineering. Based on my expertise I put together a team that realises the organisation’s goals. I love doing that, because the best part of my job is the thinking along: how can we in any case achieve the desired end result? Now I can think along based on my expertise on how Forexx can become the best in the industry!”
Forexx feels like family
“Thanks to Forexx I have grown as a person and believe even more in my own abilities. That is because of our beautiful way of working. People look out for one another and for everybody’s needs and developments. Everyone listens to you and thinks about how you can grow and fulfil your future dreams. This helps me to lift myself, others and the organisation to a higher level.”
Hidden talents discovered
“People have said to me that I would be a good manager. I never believed them. I was too insecure. In my current assignment I coach and guide junior licensing officers. With my help they become the best version of themselves. They grow in their profession and gain self-confidence. Forexx has brought out this talent in me. Together we will look at ways in which I can further professionalise my managing skills.”
