In the dynamic world of fast delivery, where every moment counts, we bring the story of a young Montenegrin who, with his work and enthusiasm, represents the face of the company for many users of Glovo services. Slaven Vuksanović, a security student at the University of Donja Gorica and a proud member of the fleet of couriers who deliver via Glov, is proof of how an individual can influence corporate culture and become its inseparable segment. Through his story, we learn more about what it means to be a part of Glov's courier network and why this job is ideal for all those who are looking for ways to earn and gain valuable experience.

For Slaven, working with Glova is an opportunity to meet new people, acquire different skills, earn good income and, what is most important to him, achieve a balance between professional ambitions and academic obligations. "Glovo enabled me to balance everything - studies, work and private life. The flexibility of working hours gives me the freedom to create my own schedule, while at the same time I make financial profit, especially in the summer months, which is especially important to me at this stage of my life." pointed out Slaven.

Glovo is more than an intermediary between restaurants and customers - a community that nurtures its members, giving them the tools and support to be the best at what they do. This is best seen through Glov's "Promise to Couriers", an initiative that provides access to various trainings and courses through the G-Learning platform to all those who make deliveries, and which celebrates its second anniversary in Montenegro this April. "Even though we are hired through an agency, Glovo treats us as if we are part of their team, and that sense of belonging is precious to us. Training on the topics of security, information technology, marketing, sales, language courses, these are all important aspects of our professional development and we are very grateful for that." points out Slaven.

Team spirit is what Slaven especially values. "As a courier who delivers through Glovo, you are never alone. Even when some challenges occur during the working day, whether they are of a technical nature or regarding interaction with users, you can always count on the help of colleagues. It is an atmosphere that inspires me and motivates", he points out. What makes Slaven's job especially exciting are the daily adventures with Glovo users. "Every day is a story in itself. There are no dull moments, it's always dynamic and that's what I really like about what I do", Slaven added.

However, Slaven believes that there is room for the growth of tipping culture in Montenegro, which would further enrich the experience for both couriers and customers. "Giving tips is a gesture that has great value for us, both materially and emotionally", explains Slaven.

As a young man who has just started his professional journey, he tells everyone who is thinking about his future that in our country you can still make a good living from your work. "I notice that a lot of young people go outside of Montenegro to work, but they don't realize how much good money can be made here. Being a courier through the Glovo platform gave me not only financial stability, but also the opportunity to meet new people, learn new skills and explore different aspects of our society through the relationship with users. Glovo offers the chance to build a career under conditions that suit you, with flexibility that allows you to explore other passions and obligations, and it can hardly be better than that.", concluded Slaven.

Through the experience shared by Slaven Vuksanović, Glovo is not only asserting itself as a leader in the delivery industry, but as a company that builds a community, encourages growth and development, and offers more than expected - both to its users and employees. In a world of fast delivery, Glovo creates stories that last.
