After completing my training as a track construction specialist, I was offered a position in the HERING Railway Construction division. Since then, I have completed various further training courses: specialist in special track construction, certified foreman, trainee, assistant site manager in structural and civil engineering, and most recently the trainer certification. Currently, I often work in the office, where I oversee projects. My tasks include planning construction processes, coordinating personnel, ordering materials, and taking part in site meetings.
I feel very comfortable at HERING and can easily imagine working here for many more years!
Foreman in Railway Construction
In 2000, I began my training as management assistant in office communication at HERING. After completing my apprenticeship, I was able to take part in HERING’s junior talent development program. As a result, from 2007 until the birth of my first child in 2012, I held the position of Head of International Sales.
After returning from parental leave in 2014, I started working as an Assistant Project Manager. Following the birth of my second child in 2016, I took another three years of parental leave.
Today, I am glad to be back on board at HERING. I mainly support the International Sales department and am very grateful for the opportunity to successfully balance my career and family life.
Assistant International Sales
The main task of a train driver is to supply construction sites with the required building materials – for example, wagons loaded with track ballast or sleepers. Above all, it is essential that the requested materials are delivered punctually and reliably.
I have now been working in this profession for ten years. Thanks to the constantly changing work locations, the job never gets boring: each site has its own conditions, and you get to meet many new people along the way.
