Thank you very much. I thought about it for a long time, because I personally don't like to be the center of attention, but what could be more authentic than 41 years in the company.
I started my training as a draughtswoman in acid construction in 1983 and was subsequently taken on.
Today I work in the position of deputy head of department. I really enjoy it because I can work independently, creatively and responsibly. With the specialist knowledge I have acquired over the years, I am now the one who can share my knowledge and pass it on to the next generation.
I enjoy the varied challenges in my work. I contribute to the global planning of complex projects. This requires a solution-oriented approach, flexibility and combines creativity with the necessary functionality. And all this with a local employer that allows me to spend time with my family and be part of a very close-knit team.
After so many years at Steuler, I could probably fill a whole book with all the wonderful stories. There were a few moments that showed me how strong the community in the company is.
It gave me a very good feeling that I could easily return to work after my parental leave and increase my weekly hours at a pace that suited me. But the most moving moment was certainly 2015, when I was finally able to return to work after 1.5 years of serious illness and continue doing the job I enjoy. The people here at Steuler made that possible.
Among other things, and for me definitely - people who are there for each other and stand by each other even in challenging situations. Each of us helps to shape the company with our work and it feels good to be part of this big picture.
As I said, having fun at work has always been my motto and I am proud that I have been able to maintain and exemplify this through all the ups and downs of the past few years. I will be retiring in a few years' time, so I very much hope that, in addition to the purely technical aspects, I will also be able to pass on my attitude: enthusiasm and a sense of responsibility.
That I would spend almost my entire professional life at Steuler!
This personal story is one of many special people who have made Steuler what it is today.
