Time to say goodbye...

Patricia Martinez leaving Organic Services

Our Client Managers (from left to right): Gemma Julia Camprodon, Javier Montanez, Partricia Martinez

After 5 years of working committedly and enthusiastically for us, Patricia says: "Good-bye" to Organic Services at the end of this week. She will now move to Canada for some time, where new challenges in new surroundings await her and her family.

“When I started working for Organic Services in December 2014, I did not know too much about the organic sector. That changed quickly and drastically, and within no time I was buying organics whenever I could and making more sustainable choices in all areas of life.

During the five years I worked here, I got the chance of further developing my marketing and sales competences for Group Integrity and Ecert Basic of whose benefit I am fully convinced. I loved the challenge of finding out what exactly it is that a grower group or a certifier needs to be more successful and how we at Organic Services can make life easier for them. Soon enough, I found myself sharing our clients’ excitement whenever an inspection or an audit was due, as if I was part of their team. Having said that, it was always an extraordinary pleasure meeting them in person, for example at occasions like BIOFACH in Nuremberg.

After five years, a new chapter in life is now about to start. I will miss my colleagues, and I am sure it will be difficult to find another employer who provides such an interesting job at such flexible conditions. Being a mother of two children, I could always work from home when I needed to, and ever since I’ve had a dog, I was even allowed to bring it along to the office. I look forward to the future, but I am also sad to leave.”

We wish Patricia and her family all the very best for their future abroad and hope that our paths will cross again. Gemma and Javier will continue to offer the best possible service to our Group Integrity and Ecert Basic clients. In case there are any questions, never hesitate to contact us.
