Meet our colleague, Marija Bošković. Marija is an HR Generalist at Valcon and is based in Novi Sad, Serbia.    In her role, she covers the full employee lifecycle, focusing on supporting her colleagues in Novi Sad. Her responsibilities range from recruitment and selection to onboarding, employee check-ins, performance management, organising internal and external events etc. Marija is passionate about employee experience and ensures that her colleagues feel supported at every phase of their development journey.   Her career in HR began shortly after graduating as a psychologist, starting with an internship at a recruitment agency. She began in Valcon by focusing on recruitment and selection, but over time, her role expanded to include broader internal HR responsibilities, which remain her focus today. With over three and a half years at Valcon, Marija continues to develop her expertise, especially in learning and development. Recently, she completed a course in cognitive-behavioural coaching, adding valuable skills to her HR toolkit.   Outside of work, Marija enjoys spending quality time with loved ones, listening to podcasts, working out, and brainstorming new ideas. A self-proclaimed MasterChef fan, she is on a mission to expand her skills and practice cooking while the show is on - mastering more than pancakes 😊 Marija also has a unique fondness for turtles, and her pet turtle, Kiwi, has been her delightful companion for the past two years.   Looking forward, Marija aims to pursue education in psychotherapy, aligning with her desire to make a difference through her work and personal interests.

Many organisations follow an unstructured approach to pricing, with humans making decisions based on poor data or worse, on opinion. At Valcon, our pricing approach creates hundreds of customer segments based on historical data and important pricing influencers, like the weather. Pricing advice is supplied to decision-makers via a pricing app or engine. With this information, our clients can dynamically price their products and services and benefit from improved margins, quicker decisions and the ability to balance short-term customer wins with long-term customer retention. Manufacturers, fuel distributors and retailers have successfully implemented our approach.
