My success story at thomas

“I have been working at thomas betonbauteile in Fehrbellin since April 2016. I started as an employee in the Production department. During the holiday period I worked as substitute in Work Preparation and Scheduling. After 6 months, I was able to switch to a vacant position in that department. After around a year the Managing Director asked me whether I wanted to take over the plant management. The initial training was provided by an experienced plant manager from another plant. My manager’s door was always open if I had any questions. At the start of 2019, I also took over the management of a second plant. I am very pleased and proud of the speed of my development at thomas betonbauteile. And I am very grateful to my manager and my colleagues for their support.”

My success story at thomas

“I have been working for HV Betonwerk Anhalt in Löbnitz since 1995. Since the acquisition of the shares in the partnership in 2014 by Mr Thomas, I have been a fixed part of the thomas gruppe. I started as Head of Accounts and established great trust with the former Managing Partner. I was appointed the Managing Director in 2006. I am responsible for the plants in Löbnitz, Angersdorf and Edemissen. I spend my days tackling problems as well as new challenges. My ability to learn and commitment to personal development allowed me to acquire tools and methods that help me in my daily activities. Mr Thomas is a managing partner in whom I have a great deal of trust and confidence. Mistakes can be made, problems occur, but it is important to deal with them openly and identify and implement solutions. Overcoming these kinds of issues is not possible without the support of every single employee—I am very grateful to the management group and my employees for the many years of cooperation.“

My success stories at thomas

“As the first female apprentice, I started my training as a business administrator at the Dornburg site in 1993. Following my training, I worked in Invoicing for 16 years. In my role, I managed part of the thomas gruppe’s concrete plants. My interest in accounting and my desire to further my development meant that I took on my current role of accounts payable and receivable manager in March 2012. I manage the accounts of many different areas of the company. I am also responsible for the training activities for trainees in the Accounts Receivable department. I really enjoy passing my knowledge and my experience on to young people. Every day brings new tasks that need to be tackled—it’s certainly never boring! The open culture at the thomas gruppe makes it a pleasure to come to work in the morning. I am proud to be a member of the thomas gruppe and I look forward to the continued close cooperation with my managers and colleagues into the future.“

My success stories at thomas

“I started my training as a business administrator at the thomas gruppe in August 2011. Even though I was just 20 at the time, it was clear to me that I would enjoy working at the thomas gruppe well into the future. Today, almost 10 years later, I feel more comfortable with my decision every single day.
Since the end of my training, I have been working as an Accounts Receivable Accountant for thomas beteiligungen GmbH. Since 2018, I have also been managing our commercial apprentices at the Dornburg site. Ever since I joined the thomas gruppe, I have always been able to rely on my colleagues and have learned a great deal.
I thoroughly enjoy my work and the thomas gruppe has taught me to keep a cool head, even in stressful situations. Above all, this is made possible by the constant support of all colleagues as well as Mr Thomas.
I enjoy coming to work every single day. Here, nobody tries to change me to fit a role, rather they find tasks to which I am most suited. I am challenged and supported in a team that is always pulling in the same direction.”
