Personal interview

Raúl Peñalver

Warehouse Operator - Equilabo

1. Could you tell us a bit about yourself and your professional background?

   My working life has been closely linked to logistics, manufacturing, and commerce. I began my career as a shop assistant in a grocery store, where I was responsible for customer service, restocking, organization, and keeping the store clean. I then spent the following decade working in factories, performing specialist tasks and operating production machinery in major companies within the metallurgy sector in the Region of Murcia. After that, I worked for several years as a warehouse assistant. Before my current role, I worked as a forklift operator in food industry companies, using different vehicles and loading and unloading equipment.
    

2. How would you describe your experience during these years working in the company?

   I currently work as a warehouse assistant at Equilabo, which is part of the DELTALAB group. This will be my fourth year here; I have been fortunate to join a team that works collaboratively, with an excellent and healthy work environment, both professionally and personally. We all row in the same direction, and I am very happy with my role. I strive to be self-demanding, improve every day, and offer the best of myself within the workflow we maintain in the warehouse. I feel comfortable being one more cog in this team, contributing to ensuring that our warehouse operates efficiently and cohesively.

3. What do you enjoy doing in your free time? 

   I am the father of two daughters, and they take up a large part of my day-to-day life when I’m not working. I really enjoy spending time with my family. The free time I have left I devote to my various hobbies, most of them related to technology and the audiovisual world (although my greatest passion is computing and video games). I also enjoy cinema, music, and watching sports such as football.
