HeadFirst Group makes the move to a new headquarters in Hoofddorp. This way we offer (new) colleagues and relations a special and optimal location to work and meet. The colorful building on Park 20|20 will be furnished to the latest standards for hybrid working and features a unique experience center for events.
According to Han Kolff, CEO HeadFirst Group, the former ANWB building at Taurusavenue 18 in Hoofddorp is a wonderful starting point to further realize the organization's ambitions as a team. "After great memories and tremendous growth at our current locations, we are moving to new premises. At this central, easily accessible location, we will build further to become Europe's largest labor market platform and provider of talent solutions in the professional segment."
New standard: hybrid working
Since 2020, we all think differently about hybrid working. For knowledge sharing, (team) meetings, induction of new colleagues, team work and personal meetings with colleagues and relations, we prefer to go to the office. For activities that require individual work and concentration, we prefer to work from home. The new location will provide excellent facilities for both, for example by equipping meeting rooms with the latest technology for remote meetings.
Kolff: "In designing the interior, we put our core values of 'Customer first,' 'Learn every day,' and 'Connecting people' at the center. We find it important to offer everyone an inspiring workplace, where connection is central. At the same time, we want to facilitate colleagues in an optimal work-life balance, with flexibility and autonomy. HeadFirst Group is no longer going back to a 5-day work week at the office." Additional benefits include facilities such as responsible food, excellent coffee and the opportunity to exercise. This makes the location a formidable competitor for the home office, according to Kolff.
Energy neutral
The building is completely energy-neutral, which fits perfectly with how HeadFirst Group wants to contribute to a better world of tomorrow. The location ensures that optimum use can be made of the power of the sun. There is enough daylight at any time of day, which is stimulating for HeadFirst Group employees. In addition, the location acts as a sustainable business card that introduces business relations to HeadFirst Group and its services in a special way.
Experience center
The building has a real eye catcher: the large, round theater. The high-tech interior with its semicircular projection screen is one of the largest in the world. "Besides being used by HeadFirst Group employees, it will be used in particular to receive external relations, such as freelancers, partners and clients. With possibility to work, meet and organize events. It promises to be a unique ecosystem of entrepreneurship," Kolff concludes.
