Today we would like to introduce Robin Driessen, our People & Culture Manager. 👋

We asked her: What do you love about being a People & Culture Manager?
‘’I love finding ways to make our workplace better for everyone. Whether it's empowering our team leaders to become even better managers, improving our internal communication or providing more learning opportunities for our employees, I enjoy creating an environment where everyone can thrive. Plus, I love that every day brings something different and that we have such a diverse team with people from all sorts of backgrounds.’’

Next to that, we asked her who she would choose if she could be someone else for a day. Her response: ''I would love to go back in time and be Agatha Christie, the murder mystery novelist. I'm a huge fan of her murder mysteries, so it would be exciting to step into the shoes of such a prolific writer and experience the writing process, come up with intricate plots and tap into her creativity and imagination.’’

When we asked her: What is your most memorable moment thus far at SurePay?
She replied with: ‘’It’s hard to pick one moment; I really enjoy our Friday afternoon drinks where we can get to know each other better on a personal level and close off the week with some drinks and banter. Next to that, seeing the whole company come together at the Quarterly meeting in September to celebrate wins and look ahead to the next quarter was also fun and memorable!’’

Lastly, we asked her: What makes SurePay, SurePay?
Her response: ‘’The people and culture of course! 😉 In 2021, I worked for SurePay in the Business Operations team as part of a traineeship programme, and back then I already experienced that SurePay is an awesome company with smart and dedicated colleagues. No surprise that I came back!’’

Today, we would like to introduce Bridget (Britt) Meijer, our Business Development Manager New Markets. 👋

We asked her: what do you love about being a Business Development Manager New Markets?
Her response: ''What I love about working as a Manager New Markets: Investigate, validate and analyse customers' problems and how we can solve these problems with our European IBAN-Name Check solution. Also, to learn and know about how the payments landscape is changing in terms of rules, both the domestic and regional regulations, and to adapt our solution to help our existing and new customers to protect their customers against fraud and friction.''

Next we asked her: If you could choose to be someone else for a day, who would you choose and why?
She didn't have to think twice and said: ''Mick Jagger. I would love to move like Jagger and feel how it is being on stage as a front man/woman for a crowd of 80.000 people. Next to that, he is a genius businessman.''

Another question we asked her: what is your most memorable moment thus far at SurePay?
Her response: ''This is difficult because there is not one moment, there are many moments. First that comes to mind are all the great team events SurePay organises, Like a
Padel clinic, a silent disco and our memorable karaoke nights. Also the moments on stage at events to tell people about our purpose and vision.''

Lastly, we asked: What makes SurePay, SurePay?
Her response: ''The people at SurePay and our core values. The purpose we have as a company, the drive we all have at SurePay to solve our customers problems in reducing fraud and friction in payments. “

Today we would like to introduce Ryan Shepherd, our Lead Developer. 👋

We asked Ryan: what do you love about being a Lead Developer?
His response: ''Software development is part science and part art. You can earn a degree in Computer Science, but the art of what we do comes like all art - through suffering. I am kidding of course, mostly, but being a lead is an honour. It means your peers trust you, relying on your experience and lessons learned through both successes and failures, to guide the team to build something both robust and elegant.''

Ryan responded to the question: If you could choose to be someone else for a day, who would you choose? with: ''Sorry to take the easy way out, but I wouldn't trade lives with anyone, not even for a day. Have you ever wished you could read a book or watch a series again for the first time, so everything is new and fresh and exciting? Imagine getting to experience the Netherlands for the first time - this is where I am at now, and it is wonderful.''

Next to that we asked him: what is your most memorable moment thus far at SurePay?
His response: ''Some company activities come to mind where we all went out and had nice food, but the one that made the biggest impression on me was when we stayed in the office and all brought a dish from our native country for the Christmas pot-luck. The incredible variety was a beautiful (and delicious) reminder that SurePay team members come from all over the world.''

Lastly, we asked him: what makes SurePay, SurePay?
''That there is an official answer to this question (the SurePay Values of "we care", "build together", "think forward", and "be responsible") is a very good thing, because it means what makes SurePay, SurePay is not an accident. Great company culture is something that takes effort to maintain and cultivate. The SurePay Values are easy to see in action every day. In fact, purely from observation, I would add a fifth if I could: "quality". I have never seen a single corner cut here, ever.''

Her response: ''My role at SurePay empowers me to contribute significantly to upholding security best practices and standards, thereby maximising our commitment to security."

Next to that we asked her: If you could choose to be someone else for a day, who would you choose and why?
Her response: ''I would love to be Emma Watson for a day. Like her most famous character "Hermione Granger", she is an avid bookworm in real life. She is an advocate of human rights and is also an educationist and a climate change activist. She inspires me, and I believe it would be intriguing to spend a day in her shoes.''

Her most memorable moment thus far at SurePay was when she participated in the Walking Bingo challenge. She had so much fun and loved the Slack channel where everyone shared gorgeous images.
