Zumtobel AG with its corporate divisions is a technological leader and one of the global players in the lighting industry.
One of the guiding principles of Zumtobel’s corporate culture is to promote and recruit highly qualified members of staff. With production facilities in Europe, the USA, Australia, Asia and South Africa, and sales organisations in 25 countries on five continents, the Zumtobel group offers worldwide opportunities to start and build a career. The Zumtobel Group as a whole has almost 8,000 staff members.
We owe our success to our staff members’ commitment and expert knowledge. For that reason, we are constantly looking for dedicated personalities with innovative ideas. We are looking for people – who have finished their studies or have just started their professional career – who think along new lines: people with ideas and visions, people with know-how and motivation to implement these in a team, in order to create worlds of experience using light.

For our most valuable assets, i.e. our members of staff, we provide a group-wide opportunity of improving their knowledge in the specialist and soft skills areas by using the training courses offered within the group. Further education requirements are identified in personnel development interviews held annually.

The Leadership Development Program (LDP) aims at identifying potential technical experts and executives within our own staff pool at an early stage, preparing them in a targeted manner to take over technical and executive functions. Besides the LDP, the staff member survey is another standard tool of strategic human resources development that has become an established procedure from this financial year onwards, with a feedback rate of 72 percent.
