your impact | Working atmosphere

What’s it like, working at Faber Group? Why do we do the things we do? What do we expect from you – and what can you expect from us? Who better to ask than our CEO, Ingrid Faber!

“Data and insights also empower us to track our progress toward our sustainability goals. We aim to reduce carbon emissions by 30% by 2030, and to reach net-zero by 2045. We’ve learned that over 95% of our emissions classify under Scope 3 — those generated by our external logistics chain. With the right data, we can choose more sustainable partners and accelerate not only our own goals, but those of our customers as well. That’s what sustainable growth truly means. Ultimately, this is why we do what we do: not just to grow our business, but to create lasting, positive impact — for our people, our partners, and the planet.” 

Driving sustainable impact

“So, what does sustainable growth look like today? In the past, we grew organically — expanding our portfolio step by step, hiring more people as new customers came in. That model no longer fits the pace of change in logistics. The industry is digitalizing rapidly, and so are we. By standardizing and automating repetitive tasks, we free up our people to focus on what they do best. With data and AI, we gain deeper insights into our operations, allowing us to improve processes and design new services for existing and future customers. These solutions will be rolled out across the entire organisation, fostering collaboration between business units. Through technology, Faber Group is being rejuvenated — smarter, faster, and more connected than ever.”

Rejuvenate through digital transformation

“As a family-owned company, we think in generations, not quarters. We know where we come from — and we’re clear about where we’re headed. That’s why we’re not afraid to invest with a long-term perspective. We’re building for the future. Pooling is a great example. When we first committed to it, we faced years of losses. After three years, we said: ‘Let’s give it one more year.’ It took two more to break even. In a private equity setting, that would’ve been unthinkable. But for us, it was the only way to ensure sustainable growth — and to hand over a healthy, future-proof company to the next generation.”

Long-term vision

“At Faber Group, we believe in the power of collaboration — across teams, functions, and divisions. When we work together, we all benefit. There’s no need to reinvent the wheel when the expertise already exists somewhere within our organisation. Whether you're at vPOOL, PAKi, PRS, or IPP — we’re part of one connected network, united by a shared purpose. Collaboration also means spotting cross-selling opportunities and sharing potential new business leads across divisions. That’s why we encourage everyone at Faber to stay open, curious, and connected. Because in the end, no one succeeds alone — we are stronger together.

Stronger together

‘When people feel respected and free to be who they are, they thrive’

“At Faber Group, you’ll find an open and informal culture where everyone is approachable — from your teammates to senior leadership. Most of our offices are open space, reflecting our belief in transparency and collaboration. We value diverse teams, because different backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences fuel creativity and innovation. That’s why I encourage colleagues to ‘come as you are’. When people feel respected and free to be who they are, they thrive — and so does our organisation.”

Come as you are

“At Faber Group, you’ll quickly discover that trust and responsibility go hand in hand. We offer a dynamic working environment, with great colleagues, flexibility and  plenty of room to grow. But with that freedom comes the expectation to step up — to be bold, to take initiative. Mistakes may happen along the way, and that’s okay — as long as you learn from them, use your common sense and think in the best interests of Faber Group. We don’t do big egos. No individual is above the collective. That applies to me just as much as to anyone else. It’s one of the key things I look for when hiring: people who make decisions not for personal gain, but for the greater good of the company.”

Greater good

“At Faber Group, we really live our values, Care, Dare and Deliver. We’re intrinsically motivated to deliver what our customers need. To become more sustainable – not only because we feel responsible for the future of our planet and the sustainability of our own operations, but also because we want to contribute to the sustainability goals of our customers. But we can only do so if we’re a top performing, daring company.”
