The BOSKA Culture

Working at BOSKA… what’s it really like?

At BOSKA, we believe that quality goes hand in hand with sustainability. Our goal is to design smart and cool Food Tools for life. It is our family tradition to help you create delicious food and turn every meal into a celebration. But what is it really like to work with us? At BOSKA, three core values are central: social, learning, and winning. You can feel these values throughout the company.

Social

At BOSKA, we want to bring people together. Enjoying food is best done in good company. The same goes for work—it’s much better when you’re having a good time. That’s why we do everything we can to be a fun, social, and energetic company, where you can show up every day with enthusiasm. One day you’ll be doing burpees at a bootcamp, and the next you’ll be enjoying a beer at the Friday afternoon drinks. Our Christmas party is legendary, and we know the canals of Amsterdam inside out thanks to the celebrations on the Boska boat.

Learning

Since BOSKA has been around for over 125 years, we have built up a wealth of professional knowledge. Lifelong learning is our motto at BOSKA. That’s why we are always striving to grow and develop. And we can only achieve that with the right people. And we have them! Our employees are all highly motivated go-getters with a thirst for learning and the confidence to bring their own ideas to the table. We place great importance on personal development.

Winning

As Boskanians, we are winners and do everything we can to grow and exceed the average. "Work hard, play hard"—sometimes it means working really hard, but you always get something in return. Is the warehouse in chaos during the holiday rush? Everyone pitches in to bring order to the madness—including the CEO. And yes, we are definitely not afraid of a party, so after working hard, we always find a reason to turn things upside down or enjoy some great food together.

Our way of communicating

Life is too short to take everything too seriously. That’s why our communication—both internally and externally—is "respectful rebellious." We push boundaries but are never arrogant. No matter what your position is, at BOSKA, we are all equals. No formalities, just normal people working together. You might beat your manager in a game of pool, have lunch at one big table with all your colleagues, or close a successful quarter with a competitive go-kart tournament.

The ideal BOSKA employee

Every pot has its lid—also known as organizational fit. The employee who fits best at BOSKA is a foodie, extroverted, self-taught, structured, adaptable to change, flexible, open to learning, and has a good dose of self-reflection. Do you match this personality profile? In that case, BOSKA is the perfect company for you.
