Operational Buyer @ Bufab Flos B.V.

About

With nearly 20 years worked in logistic companies, I am capable to arrange all shipments both to ship out and in China from very beginning to the end and take care all related problems independently. And always think about the client’s benefits as my first priority, calculate what the cost and most profit for my clients. And I also know that my own success is not the real success but the team’s one. Good team working is more beneficial for everyone. I also have a great sense of loyalty. If I did not come here with my husband, I would have still worked in my last company, in which I had worked nearly 15 years and with those almost 15 yeas, both my last company and I all got very good progress. I got fully developed after I joined and even my company also became the best yearly profit selling company in the year of 2016 within the whole group. Being positive to learn is my always goal, I used my part time to finished my bachelor degree and now working on my Dutch lessons as well. There is an old saying in China 三人行必有我师, which means you can learn from everyone. I like to study, not only from books but also from your colleagues, your boss, your friends and anyone who is worthy to be learned from.
