A new look for our PIM

September 17, 2021

We pay a lot of attention to the back-end of our PIM product, but the user interface also deserves a nice update every now and then. In order to give the look & feel of our SRC-PIM a more user-friendly and modern appearance, we have been working hard on a new interface in recent months. We are very proud of the result and happy to share it with you today.

Born and raised in the province of Drenthe, I grew up as a curious boy. Always exploring the new and unknown. I love to explore new countries and meet interesting people; especially Scandinavia and Italy.

About Us

Britta Glandorf-Poppen

Human Resources

Human relationships are always at the heart of what I am doing. I am practical-minded and I have a very high action-oriented problem-solving ability, a hands-on mentality. Service-oriented and helpful to my colleagues.

In my spare time, I’d like cycling, traveling, walking, yoga, and reading books. Living close to the beach with my husband, 2 sons, and a very sweet little cat who challenges everyone, even dogs!

Everything happens for a reason, coincidence doesn’t exist.

Born and raised in the beautiful city of The Hague I grew up with the sea and beach and till today I love spending my personal time there. Enjoying the dunes while running, watching the sunset with a nice drink, or making long walks along the surf of the sea.
