Career Stories
Our product and service portfolio is just as diverse as the spectrum of professions and the projects that await you at Klöckner & Co SE – either at our Headquarters in Duisburg or at any of our locations.
Take a look at what employees from our country organizations and the holding company have to say about their work and jobs at Klöckner:
Kilian Pohl
Senior Strategic Program Manager, kloeckner.i, Berlin
"Since I started working at kloeckner.i GmbH, the IT subsidiary of the Klöckner Group, I have been given the opportunity to develop my knowledge and skills.
One highlight so far has been participating in the Emerging Leadership Program (ELP). This program brings together 16 colleagues from the various subsidiaries and national companies to jointly develop leadership skills and teach learning content relating to digital transformation.
In addition to the professional learning content, the ELP also led to friendships in various areas of Klöckner, from which I still benefit today. Klöckner is open to change, diverse and has managed to anchor the topic of sustainability in its DNA. The strong team spirit and the friendly atmosphere among colleagues complement my positive experiences."
Dr. Stefan Simon
Head of Supply Chain Planning, Kloeckner Metals Germany GmbH, Duisburg
"Klöckner gives me the chance to use my strengths and knowledge – and to live out my special interests, especially in strategic logistics projects. Working with my colleagues, whom I get to know and respect through projects that transcend hierarchical levels and national boundaries, is also a great source of inspiration. It’s just as exciting and challenging to put the more theoretical, strategic findings into practice and bring the success of these concepts to life."
Jamie Pfleger
Director of Physical Vapor Disposition, Kloeckner Metals Corporation, Cincinnati
"What I particularly like about my work at Klöckner is the people - my colleagues and our customers. And I like challenges. There are plenty of them, especially currently in PVD. I can take care of commercial matters and expand on them, but at the same time I look after the operative side. An exciting job."
Alexander Becker
Warehouse / processing employee, Kloeckner Metals Germany GmbH, Duisburg
“I have been with Klöckner since 2019 and have learned and developed a lot during this time. My tasks include receiving and inspecting goods, picking customer orders and operating a variety of machines for preparation and processing. My work is very varied and the working environment is friendly. Klöckner is the ideal employer for me because I feel comfortable here and I am supported in my personal and professional development.”
Ann-Patrice Greenberg
Senior Process Automation & EDI Manager EU, Kloeckner Metals Germany GmbH, Duisburg
"As part of e-business, I am responsible for IT process automation and EDI in the sales stream. As the interface between Sales and IT Development, my main task is to offer Sales the best possible system conditions and to jointly develop innovative solutions that make our processes more efficient. What I particularly appreciate about Klöckner is that all areas work closely together, which increases our efficiency and motivation.
What particularly distinguishes Klöckner for me is our open corporate culture. Internal networks such as Women@Kloeckner and KloecknerPride promote diversity, exchange and collegial cooperation. The opportunity to work in an environment that strongly encourages cross-divisional collaboration and supports professional development makes Klöckner an ideal employer for me."
Amanda Michalik
Psychology student at Heinrich Heine University and intern and working student in Group HR, Klöckner & Co SE, Duisburg, since spring 2024
„I joined Klöckner & Co SE in Duisburg in February 2024 and support the team in recruitment, development and employer branding. My tasks include, for example, helping to maintain the applicant management system, coordinating job interviews and helping to expand our learning platform, the Kloeckner Academy. I particularly like the fact that the tasks are varied and can sometimes be challenging. I also like the fact that creativity and personal responsibility are required here.
What I appreciate about working at Klöckner is the good interaction within the team: regardless of whether it's with employees or managers - you are noticed, appreciated and receive constructive feedback.“
