This is my first post about Just-Eat, even though I have been part of this company for more almost 4 years.
Just-Eat is a very successful concept, it has been around for 11 years, mostly with presence in Denmark. During the last couple of years we have however expanded internationally very fast, going from 3 countries at the beginning of 2009 to the current 11 countries.
One of the most important parts of our company culture is ‘fun’, we work hard but we work with people we like whose company we enjoy. Ultimately we believe that our success is heavily influenced by the good relationships we have created within the company locally as well as internationally. Our functional groups (marketing, operations and sales) always try to stimulate interaction between countries and everyone in the company regularly speaks with colleagues from different geographies. International collaboration makes us very strong and it is always refreshing to meet our colleagues from all around the JE world. That is why every year we all meet to spend a couple of days together and reinforce these relationships. Last year we were approximately 130 people, this year we have more than doubled in size. Have a look at this picture to see the whole crew!
As Group Operations Director I have personally led the launch of 8 Just-Eat countries so I have had the privilege of meeting a large chunk of Just-Eat’ers around the world but even I was impressed last Saturday when I walked into the huge hall we all met at for lunch and saw how the company had grown…wow, what a fantastic experience being part of this company!
The best part however is not the growth – it is seeing so many people genuinely enjoying each other’s company knowing that on Monday everyone will go back to work with a big smile on their face and completely re-energized, willing to give 150% in typical Just-Eat style. The fact that this company is made by great people who are able to work together so efficiently as well creating such a positive environment is a clear sign of why Just-Eat is a success.
It was really great meeting colleagues from all our countries and I can’t wait for next year’s meeting
