Our story

Heroyam was founded in 2022 to help Ukrainian refugees find jobs in The Netherlands. Over the past years, Heroyam has helped hundreds of people fleeing Ukraine with their first steps on the Dutch labour market. By doing so, Heroyam’s mission was born: the help all newcomers in The Netherlands find work in a social way. We do this by fully reinvesting our profits in the development and guidance of our working newcomers.

From heroes to hope: The origin story of Heroyam

Heroyam was founded with the mission to help Ukrainian refugees in The Netherlands find work. Today, we have expanded our services to help all refugees, asylum seekers and status holders in The Netherlands find work. The name Heroyam derives from the Ukrainian slogan ‘heroyam slava!’, meaning ‘glory to the heroes’. This name represents our commitment to recognizing the heroic journeys of refugees and asylum seekers, and empowering them through meaningful employment opportunities.
