We Are ENGEL

My professional career began with an apprenticeship as a machinist. After that, I worked in this field for over ten years. I recently switched to technical sales support for automation at ENGEL. What I like most is the regular exchange with customers and colleagues.

I worked for twenty years in consulting for online marketing and industry 4.0 before ENGEL. I have entered new territory in many ways with mechanical engineering and the plastics industry. I am delighted to have taken this step and to be able to use my expertise to drive digitalization at ENGEL.

ENGEL is a very well-organized company where all employees take pride in doing their job correctly. It is a very strong team-oriented environment where all work together for everyone to be successful, which in turn makes the company successful. One thing I really like about ENGEL is that the company promotes lifelong learning and encourages employees to gain the knowledge they need to perform their job to the fullest and make the biggest impact on their personal and the company’s achievements.

In 2018 I started as an International Sales Management Trainee, where I learned about the ENGEL business in Europe and Asia. After the program, I transitioned to Account Manager in ENGEL North America to sell machines and automation to customers of all sizes across multiple market segments. The job is challenging, but the thrill comes from helping my customers be competitive and succeed. Our team supports me throughout the process, so I never feel alone. If you want to use your creativity, drive, and passion, then this is the place to be.

I have been with ENGEL for 28 years. Mainly, I love the working environment and the people who are more like family. It’s a great company and an employee-oriented workplace. They believe in employee development and in-house promotions. There are many benefits like vacation time, self-insured company, and employee gatherings. ENGEL has flexibility with all employees to ensure their needs are met and, at the same time, keep the place running. I would recommend everyone to come work for ENGEL as there is no other company I am aware of that is so great to work for.

In my 11 years at ENGEL, I’ve had the opportunity to learn from incredibly talented people and grow into a career where I feel challenged and valued. It’s great to work for a company that rewards hard work and promotes from within. Now I am the Sales Engineering Manager for Automation North America, and looking forward to further building our dynamic team.

It’s exciting to work for a leading supplier in the injection molding industry while also being able to work with customers who constantly push the innovation envelope in all market segments. Being a family-owned and operated company, the family values hold true from the CEO level down. There are amazing mentors here who I’m most thankful to for taking the time to help me grow professionally. Working at ENGEL is more like working with family. ENGEL’s motto is “be the first.” From my experience, ENGEL is the first to support you personally and professionally - through valleys and peaks. That’s ENGEL. That’s family.
