Our customers are mainly represented in the automotive, defense, pharmaceutical, engineering, medical technology and telecom industries.

Why work with me? - Recruiting Manager Emma: "As a leader, I am supportive and engaging. I am driven by collaboration, achieving common goals together, tackling challenges and having fun together. I think it's important to create a sense of belonging and pride in the group and the company. We have many years of experience in project management and leadership within the team that everyone applies at a high level and is happy to share and that is something I am very proud of."

We stand up for equality, diversity and inclusion. With us, you will be part of a diverse, inclusive organization where our differences are our strengths. We respect each other, share our knowledge and have fun at work.
