find your tribe, love them hard

“Things are just different at Hyphen. Unlike traditional consulting firms, the people here really are a close-knit group. Where the boundaries between colleagues, friends, professionals and mentors are blurred. And I attribute a lot of my success to that personal approach, good vibe and support from Hyphen. Because ‘I’m great, yet I’m humble’. (And I’m humble enough to attribute that quote to James Woods.)”

“The incredible view you get the moment you step out of the lift at Hyphen is symbolic of the new horizons that open up here. Especially at this point in my career, when I’m looking for variety and the impetus to challenge myself in different domains, with different people, from different cultures. Constantly spurring me on to broaden my horizons and see beyond them.”

“I’m a born team player. Which is what drew me to consultancy in the first place. Working with so many different people in different environments, especially on client-oriented projects is the best way to develop yourself as a finance professional but also as a person. And doing so within such a close-knit team as Hyphens only accelerates the process.”

“I’ll forever be grateful for the opportunity to transform Dixon & Company’s finance consultancy division. It has allowed me to apply my finance expertise to a commercial project and in an entrepreneurial role that is all about growth. And I’m constantly looking for new ways to challenge those entrepreneurship and leadership skills, while creating truly memorable moments for this fantastic team. It’s a privilege to stand at the helm alongside these inspirational people. Our Hyphenites are the ones who give me the impetus each day to go out there and perform, achieve and give back."

“I was sold on Hyphen’s culture and values from the outset. Friendly, open, sincere, always with a listening ear. They put their people first. Which in turn inspires them to put their clients first. It’s an approach you don’t see everywhere. And the results at Hyphen speak for themselves.”

“Project consultancy is one of the best ways to take your skillset and yourself to the next level. And an even better way is to do it with passion. Which is why it’s so invigorating to work in an environment that recognises and rewards hard work. And where consultants have full control over their own training tracks and choice of project.”

“In the fast moving world of marketing and communications, being able to adapt quickly is essential. Which is why things just clicked for me at Hyphen from the word go. As a consultant, you get the freedom to apply your creativity to a range of challenges. And here at ground control, you can always count on the support of a genuinely engaged crew behind you so you can explore further, think outside the box and try new things.”

"Every project is unique. As are the people who manage it and the culture in which they operate. And that can be incredibly stimulating… provided you have the support of a company like Hyphen behind you. The care, compassion and commitment they give their people is what inspires me to deliver the same to my clients. And to do so with a smile. Because a day you don’t laugh is a day you don’t live."

“Being the pivot between a client with a clear need and a labour market with wide-ranging expertise is a real thrill for me. I come into contact with all kinds of interesting people and get the chance to apply my passion and creativity to drive businesses forward. Backed by a young, dynamic and intelligent group of born entrepreneurs. A healthy mix of personalities, all with the same goal.”

“I love change. Whether it’s working in another country, another company or with different people. And that’s exactly what drew me to project consulting. You’re always learning something new. And at Hyphen, even more so. Everyone is open with each other. It’s not just friendly, it feels like family.”

“Hyphen’s boutique approach really works for me and for its clients. The fact that everyone knows everyone here means you find answers to questions faster. And since you get the freedom to choose the projects you work on, you can quickly steer your career where you want it to go.”

“Every project is a new challenge. And when you combine that endless source of motivation with the incredible atmosphere at Hyphen, the resultant mix is extremely satisfying. Even though most of the time, we’re all out working on projects, we still find time to plan all kinds of activities together throughout the year. It’s extremely rewarding to be able to contribute to building such a strong team.”

“Things are just different at Hyphen. Rather than (just) KPIs and figures, the focus is on quality! The smaller structure and SME feel give you the freedom to explore your own ambitions and, in my case, build my own client portfolio. In an environment where speed, efficiency and above all effectiveness are rewarded.”

“I love the openness, dynamism and above all enthusiasm you can feel at Hyphen the moment you step through the front door. The strong people-first focus on entrepreneurship is also contagious, and sparks an equally strong urge to go the extra mile for this team and to work hard to expand it.”

“It doesn’t matter what sector you work in, the atmosphere is everything. It’s important to me to feel part of something, to contribute and to be appreciated. Which is why I chose Hyphen. You can feel the enthusiasm, the opportunities are real and people listen with intent. And I already feel like one of the tribe.”

“Working for Hyphen has given me the opportunity to take my career in a more commercial direction while still keeping my roots firmly planted in the finance world. The acute focus on operational excellence combined with their passionately personal approach is why I’m convinced Hyphen is destined to become one of the largest and strongest players in Belgium. And I’m excited to contribute to making that happen.”

“The best thing about consultancy is that you get to work – have to work – on your breadth as well as your depth. I love the fact that at Hyphen, I can try out different domains within finance. It’s why I felt immediately at home here. And why I feel inspired every day to keep my head, standards and heels high!”

“I’ve never looked back since taking the step towards project consulting. The speed at which you acquire new knowledge, insights and skills is staggering. Every new project, every new environment is an opportunity to explore and express a different side to my competencies. All with the support of a great team of colleagues, many of whom have become close friends.”
