Success story

At TMC, the future is always full of opportunities

After graduating, Jeroen Peetoom started working as a Test Responsible Engineer at Bosch through a payroll company. “A colleague who was seconded through TMC told me enthusiastically about his experiences. It aroused my interest and turned out to be the start of my adventure at TMC.”

Working at TMC is like entering a warm family, Jeroen feels seen and appreciated here. “TMC seriously invests in its people. This is not only about training and coaching, but also about personal growth. They are open to ideas and also support ambitions outside their regular offering, such as my wish to pursue a master's degree. As an employeneur within the New Product Introduction business cell, over the years I have built a good relationship with my cell director, account manager and office manager. They have always been supportive and involved.”

Startups

From 2015 to 2021, Jeroen worked for one client. He wanted a change and the possibility to look elsewhere. He said he would only switch if a position became available at Lightyear, a company that develops electric solar cars. His account manager, a real go-getter, found a place for him there. “This was a dream come true. As a solar test engineer, I was able to apply my testing knowledge in a new field. Unfortunately, the company went bankrupt after I was working there for nine months. But TMC was there to catch and help me. And within only two weeks I had a new assignment, at Defenture in Tiel.”

Flexibility

Defenture is a young company that focuses on military vehicles. Peetoom works here as a test and verification engineer. “This work is hands-on and dynamic, exactly what I like.” Because the company is so young, it does not yet have a testing department. “We do a lot of driving tests, braking tests and steering tests, often outside at test locations in Germany. Despite the challenge of working with prototypes and limited vehicles, I enjoy the variety and the opportunity to make a real impact.”

New chances

Defenture benefits enormously from the collaboration with TMC. They not only have access to Peetoom's expertise. Those of other TMC employees with different backgrounds, such as electrical and mechanical engineers, are also within easy reach. “In addition to my daily work, I am working with a colleague to set up a completely new testing department. Setting up a testing department is fundamental to the growth and success of the company. It is crucial and I see myself working here in the long term, although I realize that a new client always remains a possibility. TMC's flexibility and extensive network enable rapid adjustments and new opportunities.”

Power of networks

Networking has always been an important part of Peetoom's career. By working together with TMC and building mutual trust, they have achieved a lot. “I get many opportunities and have now gained a lot of knowledge and expertise. At TMC, the future is always full of opportunities,” Peetoom says. “Whether I continue working at Defenture or move on to another project, I know I will always be supported. TMC's fast switching options and extensive network ensure that I always work in a dynamic and challenging environment. This makes TMC not just an employer, but a partner in my professional growth and success.” Working at TMC has breathed new life into Peetoom's career. From the cumbersome structures of a large concern to the dynamic world of projects and startups. “TMC has supported and facilitated me. It feels good to be appreciated and to be part of an organization that feels like family and is willing to invest in my growth and success.”
