City of familiar faces
Our city was built on steam and stride.
Resilience as the breeding ground for ancient innovation.
We are proud. Of our city, our club and our progress.
And although our backgrounds differ,
we are all cut from the same kind of wood.
For being yourself is just what we do around here.
Being there for each other the obvious.
And even though we are modest by nature, we have
to admit that that is what makes our city special.
With a neverlasting faith in progress, we are building Enschede.
From our own wilful ‘Twentse’ nature.
To see what can be improved.
We invite you to help us build this city, because together we will shape her.
That is how we build the city of our dreams.

Innovation is in our blood. The rhythm of our progress.

Our typical ‘Twentse’ spirit sets us apart.
Keeping your feet on the ground and delivering on your
promises is quite normal here.

We are there for each other, in good times and in bad.

Here you will find plenty of them, at all levels.
In an environment that you wish for all your employees.
All that space offers opportunities.
Find your boundaries.
