Your part?

As teamleader you are supervising your team on a pro-active base. You prepare the work processes to make sure the work starts well. During the day you check the quality of the flowers and the work processes, you also work together with your team to harvest the flowers (picking by hand).

As teamleader your goal is to make your team self-managing. Your task is to instruct them well and help and coach them so they grow as a team. You supervise all the work processes in your department. You make sure that the harvesting process is carried out in a timely and correct manner by your team. The quality of the flowers is of great importance, so you check this quality frequently during the harvesting process. You also keep a close eye on the growth of the flowers, so that deviations and disruptions are detected at an early stage and action is taken when necessary. You also check the delivered quality of the picked flowers before the flowers leave the greenhouse.

In addition to the primary process of picking, other activities take place. As a Teamleader, you ensure that these activities are also prepared and checked. In addition, you ensure that the working environment can be used optimally, you take action and arrange the correct preparations so that all occurring activities can be completed effortlessly.
