Belgija: zašto vrijedi raditi s nama
Svaki dan zajedno podižemo ljestvicu
Kod nas nije riječ o unaprijed definiranim putovima karijere, hijerarhijskim ljestvicama i birokratskim konvencijama. Mi smo tvrtka za ljude koji ostvaruju svoje ideje, od sobe za sastanke do tržišta. Zajednički. To je EMPWR.
Inovacija je uzbudljiva i u središtu je svega što radimo
Pomičući granice znanosti i tehnologije preoblikujemo budućnost zdravih snackova. I vi možete biti dio toga, u našem sjedištu u Ghentu gdje pretvaramo ideje u prototipove i vodimo kupce do njihovog savršenog proizvoda.
EMPWR je dinamičan i brz – jeste li i vi?
Danas rastemo brzo, a još ćemo brže rasti u budućnosti. Zato tražimo ljude koji zajedno s nama žele ubrzati tempo tržišta. Dakle, ako ste spremni izrasti u najbolju verziju samih sebe... idemo i stisnimo gas.
Ono što mi se najviše sviđa u EMPWR-u je što se uvijek suprotstavljamo statusu quo. Nekad su se proteinske pločice smatrale gumastima, tvrdima, zrnatima i općenito neprivlačnima za jelo. U EMPWR-u smo dokazali da proteinska pločica može biti nešto ukusno. Ne sjedimo samo skrštenih ruku misleći da smo razbili šifru. Svaki dan tražimo načine za inovacije i uvođenje novih koncepata na tržište nutritivnih pločica.

EMPWR je tvrtka u kojoj sam izazvana pokušavati nove stvari svaki dan. Dobiti priliku naučiti toliko puno tako brzo – to je jedinstveno. Potiče me se na preuzimanje inicijative i proaktivno postupanje, ali osjećam se sigurno jer znam da mi EMPWR čuva leđa kada je to potrebno.

Gdje radimo
Nalazimo se na 8. katu s prekrasnim panoramskim pogledom. Kompleks Blue Towers smješten je u blizini Ghenta i lako je dostupan automobilom i biciklom. U ovom živopisnom kraju nećete ostati ni gladni. Uz našu smočnicu s visokoproteinskim pločicama, u blizini ima i mnogo prodavaonica hrane i restorana.
Naše sjedište ima dobro opremljen laboratorij u kojem naš tim izrađuje prototipove koji nam omogućuju procjenu na licu mjesta i pomicanje naših inovacija korak dalje. Biti uvijek ovako blizu proizvoda ogromna je prednost za timove i još više potiče našu strast za našim proizvodom.
U EMPWR-u u Ghentu radi mladi tim u vibrantnoj atmosferi. Nikada ne propuštamo priliku za zabavu, bilo da se radi o roštilju, kvizu, piću ili svemu tome istodobno. Ako vam to zvuči kao mjesto u koje biste se uklopili, znate gdje nas možete pronaći.
