IT Ventós' growth and expansion


In this interview we will learn a little about the most personal facet of our Global Project Manager, Enrique Úbeda Graña.

Enrique Úbeda GrañaTell us your day-to-day tasks.
I am mainly responsible for managing and developing IT projects and requests for Ventós group subsidiaries. At the same time, I work on developing automation tools to streamline supply and support the growth of the group's stock. I am also in charge of the IT aspects of launching new subsidiaries and integrating with external warehouses.

What sets Ventós apart in the market?
Its product catalog and availability, as well as its worldwide service. In recent years, Ventós has established itself as a leader in the sector, ensuring the supply of a wide variety of essential oils and aromatic chemicals to its customers. Additionally, its global presence, with stock in 10 different countries and Indonesia on the way, guarantees excellent service and delivery.

What do you like most about your work?
What I like most about my job is the dynamism. Ventós is an ambitious company that is growing and expanding rapidly. To do so sustainably while maintaining service quality, we must adapt quickly and tackle new challenges. To ensure scalability, we need to provide global solutions and leverage the latest technology. Fortunately, we have the company's full support, as it is always eager to stay at the forefront of innovation.

What is your favorite fruit? Your favorite flower?
My favorite fruit is the orange. It’s versatile and can be used for everything: eating, making juice, baking, and it has many applications in our industry. My favorite flower is the daisy; it’s a simple yet very beautiful flower.

What smells transport you back to your childhood?
The smell of the sea. I have spent my summers in Cubelles, a coastal town 45 minutes from Barcelona, since I was a child. I remember my childhood with the scent of the sea.

What is your ideal vacation destination? What would your perfect vacation be like?
Any beach destination. I love traveling and exploring new places and cultures, but I relax the most at the beach. So, any destination with a beach is perfect for me; especially if it's in the Mediterranean. Enjoying delicious Mediterranean cuisine after a day at the beach is priceless.

What is the main trait of your character?
Self-confidence. It helps me face challenges and convey it to my colleagues.

What style of music do you listen to? Who is your favorite singer?
Right now, I listen to a lot of electronic music, but my favorite band has always been THE STROKES.

What is your favorite pastime?
Sports and music. I listen to a lot of music at home and love plans that involve it, like going to a concert or a festival. I’ve played different sports since I was a kid, mainly soccer and swimming. This year, for example, I ran my first half marathon, but now what I enjoy most is escaping a couple of times a year to destinations where I can surf.

If a film director offered you to make a movie about your life, who would you like to play your character?
Pedro Pascal. I really liked his role in the series Narcos and The Last of Us.

Would you prefer to travel to the past or to the future?
The future will come in its own time. I prefer to enjoy and live in the present while occasionally reminiscing about the past.
