Your colleagues

Iris Wijers
Data Analyst & Community Manager

Why Interfood?
Interfood is a fantastic company for both personal and professional growth. When I started fresh out of college, I never imagined I would become a community manager traveling to Singapore, Uruguay, and Miami, or speaking about my experiences at events. Interfood provides the space to develop and pursue the skills you're passionate about. Plus, we're a really fun team to work with, if I say so myself.

What do you expect from your new colleague?
My job involves many elements: building reports in Tableau, managing our Tableau server, overseeing projects, working on ETL with our engineers, and more. I expect a new colleague to identify their areas of interest and become a sparring partner in those areas—whether it's one or all of them. I look forward to taking you along on this journey and learning from you as well.
