Because I care.

Number cruncher with a heart for animals

When you are part of a good team you always find something to laugh about, even in stressful situations. That's the kind of team I have here at the EREMA Group - and on top of that, I have a boss who trusts me completely and always supports me! This contributes to the fact that I feel completely at home here in the company. As an accountant, I spend a lot of time crunching numbers. In my job, it is important that I work accurately and complete tasks on time. In addition to handling all the accounts receivable, I also handle the transfer of invoices and the payment of salaries. "The way you do it works well" is a compliment that always makes me very happy.

EREMA is the world's number 1 in the field of plastics recycling machines. Who wouldn't want to be able to say they work for the world's number 1? Despite constant growth, I have the feeling that everyone still knows each other - even the management, who have a strong relationship with the employees.

I completed my apprenticeship at EREMA and then attended a number of further training courses. Not only are the employees well integrated professionally, they are also well integrated at a human level. For example, I visit the in-house gym with my colleagues. For me, this is a clear sign that we appreciate the EREMA environment very much.

I think it's great to work in this industry because I care about what happens to the environment and wildlife. I used to want to be a vet, and I've kept that love of animals. Through my work at EREMA I contribute a little bit to the protection of animals in the wild worldwide. After all, recycling machines make it possible, among other things, to reduce pollution of the world's oceans.

Family person with a hands on mentality

It's actually quite simple: the dirtier we leave the planet, the dirtier the next ones will find it. I am convinced that we should always keep an eye on other people, and not just on ourselves. The EREMA Group also lives by this: We are already taking care of the next generation here today. For me, recycling is part of life. I grew up without it: back then we threw everything in a trash can. When I was old enough to do better myself, I did. Today I work as an office and shipping clerk in the circular economy and every day I contribute to something great for our environment. I am responsible for delivering the machines to customers and can therefore see how many systems we "put out" and thus also how many recycling systems will be in operation in the future to make something new out of the old. This shows me what positive changes can result from new ideas. And that I don't have to worry about my job in any crisis. Because the world market leader EREMA is needed!

I like working here because the colleagues are great and it's a family-friendly company. This is how the recycling idea is passed on to the next generation. At least that's what I teach my children! EREMA has made a very good name for itself, especially among young people. As the apprentice coordinator for company logistics, I am particularly pleased about that. In this role, I don't judge the apprentices based on their grades. I prefer to get to know them by getting an idea of ​​their personality and work motivation – that's more important to me. A straight A in math is secondary if the person in question lacks social skills! It is crucial that the apprentices remain motivated and like coming to work. I try to contribute to that.

Calming and respectful

"Be the person who you would like to meet" is one of my guiding principles. I abide by that principle - and so does my employer 3S. I have been working here on the management team since April 2021 and have set up the apprentice workshop, among other things.

I appreciate the high level of social competence of the company and the EREMA Group. For example, apprentices are considered part of the team from a very early stage. We offer not only a secure job, but also an appreciative environment where you work independently and yet together on challenges.

I personally feel that what we are doing has meaning - because our machines can create positive things. Even as a child I enjoyed the outdoors, it is still an important source of calm for me today.

We live in one of the most beautiful countries in the world - and we need to keep it that way. Natural resources are becoming increasingly scarce. If we want to maintain our quality of life, we need to live sustainably. That is something that the EREMA Group and we at 3S contribute to.

Responsible perfectionist who appreciates quality

Trust, flexibility and great future visions: that is the foundation on which EREMA is built. This is not only evident in the clear goals, but above all in the way the people here work together. Employees are the most important factors for success - it is obvious that is the way EREMA thinks.

No matter how small the nuts and bolts are: they are all important for a working machine. That's exactly how we work together as a team, and that relationship is exactly why I'm happy with my job. "How did you do that?" my managers sometimes ask me, puzzled. This gives me the good feeling that my work contributes something valuable. Even if some things already seem perfect, I always want to do it better. That helps everyone, and when we are then praised as a team, that is the best compliment for my work.

I like it when I am allowed to achieve new goals and handle new challenges - and, it is great to work in a future-oriented, innovative company that attaches great importance to fairness! Also to the environment: recycling is not just the future, but also the present. The world doesn't work without recycling. We are already witnessing pollution of the earth, water and air on a massive scale. We all have a responsibility when it comes to conserving the world for the next generation.

Coordination talent at her career start.

After graduating from Highschool for mechanical and automotive engineering in Steyr, I started at EREMA in November 2022 as a technical clerk in project management. I experience the company as cutting-edge, ambitious and challenging because EREMA is always striving to develop new innovations. You can also sense this spirit among colleagues and that makes me enjoy going to work every day, just like the comprehensive training and further education on offer. In a world where the challenges are constantly changing, this gives me a perfect start into my professional life.

I see plastic recycling as an important element in closing cycles. I think this is necessary if we want to continue living well in the future, preserve the environment, conserve resources and counteract environmental pollution. I work towards this goal every day at EREMA together with my colleagues. At the moment, as a young professional, I am mainly getting to know processes and ways of working because I am assigned in many different areas. I help with larger projects, substitute during absences and thus get a comprehensive insight. This suits my passion for planning and order. In project management, the most important thing is to coordinate the different processes and procedures well. My hobby also helps me with this. In my free time, I can often be found on the slopes or downhill trails. No matter whether it's cycling or snowboarding - it's always about maintaining control and having a certain coordination ability. For me, that translates well into the job.

At EREMA I have found a future-proof job with which I contribute to making our world a little bit better. And I do this in an appreciative and collaborative working environment. This fits in well with my attitude to work and my motto in life: "What you give is what you get."

Explaining bear & fan of change

As an "explaining bear", I like to tell the people around me about plastics, recycling and sustainability. This often leads to interesting, in-depth discussions. Passing on knowledge and information is also part of my work as a Process Technician at EREMA and as a training representative for commissioning technicians. It is always important to me to show others alternative ways, but not to try to change their minds. It's important to me to let everyone express their opinion. It's about being with each other, not against each other. That's the only way we can be the driving force for the circular economy and a clean world.

I find it hard to imagine working for any other company. I appreciate that it is people that are in the foreground, rather than their work or education. Here, everyone is treated with the same level of respect. And because of that, many of my colleagues have already become friends. I can also identify very well with the vision and mission. And my values are very much in line with the company's.

Standing still means step backwards - especially in terms of an important topic such as the future of our planet. It's all the more rewarding when in my job I can teach others, help them progress, so that over the long term we make a contribution to the success of the company and to global recycling.

I am fully behind my work when the projects are thought through to the end and when I see that the trainees - my new colleagues - become more independent. Especially if I then receive positive feedback from them for my work. This can cause goose bumps moments now and again.
