Celebrating 30 years with Jes Jakobsen

So what makes someone stay with the same company for 30 years?

For Jes, part of the answer is that it has never really felt like the same job.

New customers, new projects, different colleagues and constantly evolving technology mean there is always something new to understand and solve.

“In a way, I get a new job twice a year.”

It is exactly that variety that has kept his curiosity alive. And with Microsoft and TRIMIT continuously developing, there is little chance of simply relying on routine.

There is another reason too. Jes describes TRIMIT as a workplace with freedom, flexibility and room for people – also when life throws something unexpected their way.

“It’s a spacious company with a good mindset.”

For someone who lives in Aarhus, Jes also appreciates being able to mix days at the office in Viborg with customer visits and days working from home.

And life outside work has changed over 30 years too.

These days, Jes enjoys spending time with family and friends – and grandchildren have added a new chapter.

He also keeps active with running and strength training. Volleyball may have been left behind years ago, but if someone brings a ball to the beach, Jes says he is still ready to join in.

30 years, several roles, countless customer projects – and still plenty of curiosity left. Congratulations, Jes, and thank you for everything you continue to bring to TRIMIT.
