Meet The Team

At Flamingo, we strongly believe that our employees are the backbone to the company’s success. We strive to achieve teamwork, and so we organize regular events and activities where our staff can integrate and get to know each other on a personal level and not just at the work place, which in the long run enhances teamwork.

We try to maintain a very hospitable environment at work, so that employees are not just workers, but friends. We accept ideas and criticism from everyone and this way, employees are not just numbers, but truly are an integral part of the company.
