project manager, STAUFEN AG

When I started as a trainee back then, my goal was to be able to shape the path to a successful future in exciting projects together with our customers. Today, I can do just that at Staufen and am responsible for and shape a wide range of projects with a focus on strategy and sales. Personal development was very important to me. Staufen supported me in this, for example by enabling me to spend six months in Shanghai and to gain further intercultural project experience all over the world.
