Who we are

Five towers build the basis for our team setup – all towers include a central team and a local team.

The central team designs and builds the global solution with the support of the local team, which defines the local legal and statutory requirements and localizes all of the activities.

How we collaborate

What I like about BT is the working environment that has been established.

BT project members collaborate very well and respect each other, which strengthens our shared commitment to the success of the project.

What I like about BT is the passion that everyone in this program has to take KION to the next level.

It is encouraging to see all these best practice ideas starting to become reality.

I am excited about collaborating with different groups of people from all areas and all parts of the world, who bring their various perspectives.

We work closely with management, the decision-making channels are direct and I feel close to the action. Every day brings new insights. What I find particularly appealing is that I can take on responsibility, shape my own contribution and learn a lot in every project phase.

We can grow personally and as a team with every new task and challenge. These are my motivators.

Collaboration - a key to success in Data Management. For us it is of utmost importance to get the confidence and trust of our local colleagues in all the data activities that we do in Business Transformation.

We have gained this trust by effective communication, regular engagement and working together.

Having joined the KION Business Transformation as a work student, I was very happy to continue with the start of my professional career and now after 2 years developing even further into a new role within the project.

I can share that Business Transformation is a unique opportunity to exploit ones own potential, to build a broad network at KION and to constantly grow.

It is the right place for anyone looking for a varied, future-oriented and international workplace that offers exciting development opportunities in addition to career entry.
