Work. Jelske‘s way
Office Administrator at Advantech in the Netherlands

“Being flexible and connected with your team makes every day different, and that’s what keeps it exciting.”
My name is Jelske Dijstelbloem. I started at Advantech with a part-time position of just 4 hours a week, and over time I’ve grown into a full-time role of 32 hours per week. I manage the office in Eindhoven, taking care of maintenance, facility matters, and supporting my colleagues. I work closely with Chrisje, our Facility Coordinator for Europe, and my goal is to make sure everyone at the office feels taken care of and can focus on their work without worries.

Develop
“One of the biggest challenges, and what I enjoy most, is the variety in my work. No two days are the same. I’m always ready to respond quickly to unexpected questions or issues from colleagues, and I ensure that everything runs smoothly. Besides daily office management, I also organize events like the Advantech Day, making sure we create a welcoming and pleasant environment for everyone.”
Connect
“The atmosphere at our office is really great. I’m part of a close-knit team of women spread across Europe who support and strengthen each other. Connection and openness are key to our success. It feels good to know that you’re part of a team that cares and works well together.”
Growth
“Advantech has given me the opportunity to grow from a small part-time role to a full-time job with responsibility. This shows me that with commitment and openness, there’s space to develop and expand your role. The supportive environment makes it easier to take on new challenges and keep growing.”
“My advice to anyone thinking about joining Advantech is: be open to connection and ready to be part of a team. You need to want to contribute to something bigger and be collegial. If you do, Advantech will feel like a warm bath: a great company to work for.”
