Stella is working as a HR Adviser

Stella’s story

My career at Arvato has been characterised by diversity and growth. I started here more than ten years ago, when I'd just graduated and was reasonably inexperienced, as a member of the HR staff. In this role, I was able to develop in the HR Administration and Payroll field. Later on I was able to take part in the start of Supply Chain management and Logistics services provided by Arvato in the Netherlands, and I became an HR Adviser. My personal affinity with the logistics sector meant that I felt at home here quite quickly too. I'm happy that I – along with so many hard-working colleagues – have been able to make a contribution to the company's success and growth. I've been given opportunities to develop in the HR field and I've grabbed them with both hands, for example by showing initiative myself. Now I manage the same team on which I once got started!

Although I'm a textbook example of how you can develop within a company, in my experience it's not just about job growth. For me, the top priority is having a fun and reliable team and enjoying coming to work. At work, I'm constantly seeking the right balance between employment legislation, providing personal attention to the staff, and the company's growth and hectic pace. At home I also try to find a balance between my work and motherhood. With two young children and a responsible part-time job, that can be quite a challenge at times. If I start something, then I finish it. The things I do, I want to do well and I get stuck into them. And I always try to improve things a bit whenever I can; that's when I'm happiest.
