Chef Everything Karin: “Feels like coming home.”

She was the very first on the payroll and fortunately she is still there. What Karin does within One Zero IT? You better ask what she doesn’t. As Head of Everything, she deals with administration, HR, events and field management. A varied job at a company that for her ”feels like coming home”. Meet Karin!

A large group of friends

Karin: ”From day 1, One Zero IT felt like family. It’s like we’re a big group of friends. It sounds very cheesy, but I really never go to work reluctantly. Although we all work hard, it doesn’t feel like work. We just have a lot of fun and laughter together. I am appreciated, trusted and can be open and honest. Both about things going on at home and on business.”

Investing in personal attention

Before this, she worked in aviation and a career in IT was not exactly on her dream list. ”Roland called if I was open to an interview. At the time I said: no, IT is really too dusty for me. And here I am five years later, haha. IT is anything but dusty.” In her work she has a lot of contact with colleagues who are working for a client. Karin: ”What makes me especially happy is when you hear from both the client and the consultant how happy they are with each other and how grateful for our help. It’s great to see that everyone is greeted so warmly when we have another get together.”

Work-life balance

Being a mother of two young kids sometimes brings quite a few challenges. Fortunately, from One Zero IT, Karin never feels the pressure. ”Sometimes you have your hands full at home. At One Zero IT I find the flexibility to combine work and private life. I can always work from home or do things in the evening or on weekends. If the balance isn’t quite right we have no trouble talking to each other about it here, which is very nice.”
