Get to know our team – meet Danny!

Those who follow us on social media, have undoubtedly seen some impressive action shots of our machines pass by. These are all made by our colleague Danny, who has a background in multimedia design and therefore knows how to deliver the coolest photos. In addition, he is occupied with the marketing and communication strategies of SHERPA mini-loaders. Danny therefore is really active behind the scenes, but sort of a stranger to our customers. To change this, we conducted a small interview with him. Read along to get to know Danny!

Hey Danny! Could you briefly tell us who you are and what you do?

My name is Danny Verhagen and I’m 28 years old. I just moved to Eindhoven and therefore really busy with fixing things in my new loft. Usually I spend a lot of my free time behind a camera or riding a motor cycle. At SHERPA I am responsible for the communications and multimedia.

When did you start working here and what did you learn so far?

I started on April first, so I have been working at SHERPA mini-loaders for almost a year now. Before this job I was in school, so I am very happy I get to apply everything I have learned during my study into practice here.

What do you like most about working at SHERPA mini-loaders?

The responsibility and freedom I get here! There is much room for initiative and personal input, so I can really incorporate my own vision and identity into the work I do here. This is for example reflected in the photos I take.

What do you want to accomplish in the future here?

The past months I have been mostly occupied with video, photography, and design, but I would like to grow into a more strategic function. Think of initiating marketing campaigns, monitoring communication objectives, etcetera. And in the meantime I would love to stay involved with multimedia design.

Which event at SHERPA has stuck with you the most?

The release of the new Z-series! The whole process begun when I just started working here, so I immediately was in charge over the communication and marketing of the Z-series. I could completely organise it as I wanted to, which was really cool. I’m very proud I was allowed to run this project as a newcomer in the company!
