I joined Hilti as a graduate and from the start, I got lots of help and guidance. The first few weeks were spent learning about the company and its products including training with the business and ensuring I was introduced to many people. It’s a very supportive environment and I found that you are encouraged to ask as many questions as you want. The whole team works together to make you feel at home. All of this ensured that I settled into the role and quickly progressed to a support engineer role.

Currently my role is within the Engineering Competence Centre as a senior engineer for firestop. There’s a great mix of people from entry level to people who have been here for 20 years or more You are always learning new things and sharing ideas, it just becomes part of your day-to-day. It’s exciting because Hilti are very open to new ideas, and they believe that great solutions can just as easily come from the new person as from the person with more experience. So, if your idea looks like it’ll help the customer, you get a green light and can go with it.
