On Saturday, June 03, 2023, we, thomas zement, were represented at the open-air job fair “JobWalk” at the market place in Jena. Together with about 100 regional companies, we presented our company in addition to our diverse professional offers. We were able to explain the production of cement, binders and building materials to interested visitors.

It was particularly important for us to address young people and give them an opportunity in our industry. After all, there is a shortage of young people in all sectors of the regional economy. Our Managing Director Heiko Theuerkauf also emphasized that we have no fears for the future and will close the personnel gaps.

However, we do not rely on temporary employment as a strategy. We are open to applicants with different educational backgrounds and also welcome high school graduates and people with higher general education in our company.

On Saturday, we welcomed 50 interested visitors to our stand and look forward to continuing to inspire people interested in the construction and building materials industry in the future.

The team of thomas betonbauteile Hennickendorf

We, thomas betonbauteile, participated in the training fair in Petershagen-Fredersdorf from May 5 to 6 and were more than satisfied with the result.
The stand was ideally placed and the fair as a whole was very well organized.
Our hands-on activity, where visitors could try out small quick concrete jobs, was a complete success and opened many contacts.

On Friday, mainly young people came through the hall, while on Saturday both parents and young people came by with specific ideas.
We had good discussions and are confident that we will be able to attract new apprentices as a result.

The organization of the two days was mainly in the hands of our 2nd year apprentices, Thomas Lieder and Nils Clemens Dzurny. They were supported by Manja Ebert (billing clerk) and Katrin Schulz (trainer and plant manager), both of whom could be found at the stand around the clock.

Thomas and Nils were also available for interviews on the trade fair stage and cut a good figure there.

All in all, we had a lot of fun representing our location and the thomas gruppe at the trade fair.
We are proud of our trainees and the entire team that contributed to this successful appearance.

Participation action with fast-setting concrete

Fehrbellin - School class

Under the motto “Companies at schools”, an event was held on 19.01. to support students in their search for an apprenticeship. The Fontane School in Neuruppin revived this event after Corona and many companies from the area took part – including us!

Together with our colleagues from the Fehrbellin site, we were able to give the inquisitive students an insight into the field of concrete components. Afterwards, a question and answer session took place, which was accepted with great interest by the students.

We, thomas betonbauteile Fehrbellin, welcome and support such events. We also have to think about the new generation and the future of the sites. Thus, the event of the FontaneSchule is a successful opportunity to give an insight and to exchange ideas.
