It starts with opportunity.

CAREER & PROGRESSION

We understand that everyone sees opportunity differently and we're proud that at Knauf we see opportunity in everyone.

For any stage in your career

Finding the right opportunity is a personal journey. As we are all unique, we all look for a different ‘recipe’ of requirements from a business and within a role to see if it could be the right opportunity for us.

At Knauf, we understand that we cannot address everyone’s ‘recipe’ list individually, but we can be trustworthy, authentic, and hands-on in our approach to foster an environment where high performance thrives within a safe space.

PEOPLE STORIES

I have already completed my training here. As Knauf relies on the further development of its own employees, I am now responsible for the screed plant and the underground crushing plant at the Hüttenheim factory as operations manager. It makes me proud to be able to work in Bavaria's largest mine, which serves as a source of raw materials for production.

Andreas Klein

Operations Manager, Knauf Gips KG
My career at Knauf Insulation started in 2013, when I was responsible for 88 employees as production manager at the Bernburg plant. Now I have made the leap to HR Business Partner, which gives me the opportunity to fully utilise my skills in people development. What I particularly appreciate about Knauf is the inspiring cooperation and the constant challenges that allow me to grow.

Karina Berlig

HR Business Partner, Knauf Insulation GmbH
After my studies, starting my career in product management at Knauf was both an exceptional offer and an opportunity. Here I was able to discover and develop my passion for our products, their applications and systems. This foundation was important for my entry into sales. During my time there, I was able to go through many interesting stages and develop further. The support in the team and from all colleagues rounds off the good work at Knauf.

Thomas Thode

Head of Key Account Prefabricated House - Timber Construction - Modular Construction - OEM, Knauf Gips KG
Since I joined the company in 2014, I have been able to take on my first management positions after just a few years, right up to running a company. Performance and commitment are rewarded, and you are given the best possible support to prepare you for the tasks ahead. In particular, the enormous creative freedom to achieve goals has always motivated me personally and enabled me to pursue an individual career focused on my strengths.
