20 years of responsibility, honesty, and being firmly rooted in import operations🙌
Today, we celebrate Mette Poulsen’s anniversary, and with 20 years at H.Daugaard comes a truly solid level of experience. Throughout all these years, she has been a dedicated part of everyday life in our import department, building up a knowledge and understanding of the area that only very few can match.
The story began with a phone call asking whether Mette would be interested in a position as an office assistant in import. Back then, part of the job involved bookings via fax, a working process that many of the younger colleagues today have only heard stories about.
Since then, Mette has worked with a wide range of tasks within Import, including settlements, return tyres, quotation setup, and many of the day-to day tasks that naturally arise along the way. At the same time, she has been part of our tyre division from the very beginning. That is also why she is one of the people who can step in across many different areas whenever extra support is needed.
When it comes to Mette, as a colleague you always know exactly what you are getting: “I’m a straightforward person. I like things to be said as they are, and I take responsibility for the work I do, but I also expect the same in return.”
That direct approach is a big part of who Mette is, and her clear and honest communication creates openness, while at the same time she is a caring person who shows a genuine interest in her colleagues and their lives, both at work and outside of it.
Because for Mette, the people around her have always mattered the most. “I’m always happy to get up in the morning. I genuinely enjoy coming in to see my colleagues, and I like what I do. We laugh a lot together, and there has always been a really good atmosphere.”
When the working day is over, Mette is the definition of a true home person,
enjoying life with her family, long walks, books, and spending time in the garden. The summer house on Fanø also means a lot to her whenever there is time, although the children’s football schedules also need attention 😊
We would like to congratulate Mette on her 20 years with H. Daugaard and at the same time thank her for the commitment, helpfulness, honesty, and extensive experience that have made her such an important part of everyday life at H. Daugaard.
Congratulations on your anniversary 👏
