There are individuals. And personalities. For us, they are people who not only think in the present but also in the future tense. People who convince others with innovative ideas and inspire them through motivation. People who have the professional and social skills to realise their own visions together with others in a team, in order to create worlds of experience with light. Our employees are personalities like these. For us, they are true “lighting people”.

Here they report on what makes their work so special, the challenges they overcome as part of the daily routine and why they enjoy being part of the Zumtobel Group.

 

Richard Hall
Director Marketing Thorn, Dornbirn AT

I like working for the Zumtobel Group, because I have found that the company provides opportunities to employees who are flexible and wish to develop their careers, experiences and skills. Zumtobel has also given me the opportunity to live and work in different countries with people from a variety of cultures. I also enjoy working for two quite different brands that I am equally proud to be associated with.

I like to work for the Zumtobel Group, because we create great lighting concepts for our customers. Our business is growing, because we listen to our customers. Working in a team, we get better, energised, focused solutions, improving our strong brand image of quality, reliability, affordability and customer service. All of our new designs consider performance, efficiency and comfort which are key issues for developing our brand values. The people are great here, they always help – it´s just like being in a big family.

Reinhardt Wurzer
Head of International Projects, Dornbirn AT

Back in 1972 the dynamic development of Zumtobel was such that committed employees had every opportunity arising in a wide range of countries almost every day. Right through to the early 90s my work remained exceptionally varied and truly international. Since I rejoined the company as Head of International Projects I have been able to make good use of all the knowledge, experience and contacts I established over 30 “light years”, in a role as rich and diversified as anything the industry has to offer.
