For more clarity here is a day in the life at NimaGen

You start your day at our beautiful office in Nijmegen. You check the inbox to see whether any new customer questions, orders, or requests have come in and get started right away.

 

While working through your emails, a customer from abroad calls with a question about their order. You help them in a friendly and professional way and make sure they have the information they need. Back in your inbox, you see that a new order has arrived. You process it accurately and send a confirmation to the customer.

 

As part of customer service, you also support our sales activities. You prepare quotations, respond to customer enquiries, provide product and order information, and make sure requests are followed up properly. You work closely with your colleagues to ensure that customers receive a quick, accurate, and professional response.

 

Just as you are about to continue, the doorbell rings. You welcome the visitor and let the appropriate colleague know that their appointment has arrived.

 

You also help keep our office running smoothly. This includes staying in contact with our cleaning company, contacting electricians when maintenance or repairs are needed, coordinating with the gardeners, and managing the laundry. You keep an eye on what needs to be done and make sure practical matters are followed up.

 

At 12:30, it is time for lunch with your colleagues in the canteen.

 

In the afternoon, if it is a shipping day, you register the shipments that need to go out with our courier partners and arrange the pickup. You then send tracking information to customers and take care of any other questions or requests that have come in.

 

Throughout the day, you switch between different activities. One moment you are helping a customer, the next you are processing an order, preparing a quotation, welcoming a visitor, or arranging something for the office. You enjoy having a varied range of responsibilities and remain calm when things get busy.

 

With your eye for detail and practical mindset, you make sure that customers are well looked after, orders and quotations are processed accurately, and the office stays organized and welcoming.

 

Before you know it, the day is over!
