Divine James

"At Tamro, I get to grow and take on new challenges."

Divine James, a warehouse employee at Tamro's distribution centre in Gothenburg, is known for her positive energy and determination. With the motto "If you got a job, do it good!" she spreads both joy and inspiration among her colleagues. After three years at Tamro, she has not only developed professionally but also achieved impressive personal growth.

From curiosity to job satisfaction

It was when my husband applied for a job at Tamro that I first came into contact with the company, and something was sparked in me – I wanted to be part of Tamro too. When I received my work permit, I quickly got in touch, and today I work at the warehouse in Gothenburg, a place where I both thrive and develop. When I started here, my Swedish wasn't the best, but thanks to my colleagues, my language skills improved quickly. Today, it is one of the greatest personal developments I have made, and it is truly largely thanks to Tamro.

"What I appreciate most is that we are encouraged to develop and try different roles."

Community is a big part of the workday

At Tamro, we are encouraged to develop, and I have had the opportunity to try several different departments. I started in the picking department, then moved on to dispatch, and now I work in goods reception handling orders. Learning new tasks is both challenging and fun, but if I had to choose a favourite, it would probably be the picking department – where it all started. It's not because the work there is easier, but because it was where I started with a fantastic team. We quickly became like a small family and supported each other every day.

A strong team spirit is key

I always take responsibility for my tasks and help colleagues when needed because I believe that mindset is the key to our success. With a solution-oriented approach, I always try to see opportunities in the challenges that my colleagues and I face. "If the company succeeds, I succeed!" is a motto I live by – because when Tamro succeeds, I know that both my colleagues and I have done a good job.
