“Family togetherness”

I completed my training as an industrial clerk at LKE in 2010 and was then taken on directly as a sales assistant. During my training, I got to know and appreciate every department in the company. Even back then, I liked the family atmosphere and the company’s wide range of services. When I suddenly fell ill at the end of 2014, it was impossible to think about a regular working life for a long time. But when I received a part-time job offer from LKE in 2021, that was the next step I could take. Thanks to my helpful team, I quickly regained access to the work processes and products. I now have my own area of responsibility again, where, thanks to my flexible working hours model, I can contribute creatively and independently alongside physiotherapy and visits to the doctor.

“Progress is desired and encouraged”

My position requires extensive specialist knowledge and a great deal of commitment to keeping up to date with all relevant topics. Training and further education are therefore an integral part of my personal and professional development. LKE GmbH has supported me from the very beginning with the implementation and has thus enabled me, for example, to complete further training to become a certified specialist for customs and foreign trade and is also currently supporting me in my further training to become an industrial business administrator. They are open to all suggestions for further training and you can be sure that progress is desired and encouraged here – in line with my personal motto “standing still is going backwards”.

“Promoting a good life-work balance“

After my parental leave, I found the perfect employer for my return to work in LKE GmbH. Flexible working hours and the opportunity to work part-time made it possible for me to reconcile family and career. I started with 20 hours a week as support for accounting and human resources. In the course of my employment, I was able to increase my weekly working hours and am now responsible for my own area of responsibility in financial accounting. It speaks for itself that I have now been working at LKE GmbH for over 11 years. Promoting a good ‘life-work balance’ is a top priority at LKE.

“LKE – a competent partner”

Hello, I’m Maik L. and I’m writing my bachelor thesis at LKE GmbH in Marl. I study automotive engineering at the FH Dortmund. Towards the end of my studies, I was looking for a competent company to help me with my Bachelor’s thesis and to gain my first work experience as an engineer. I have found such a partner in LKE GmbH. During my time at the company, I always felt very well received. My bachelor’s thesis is about planning a Kanban warehouse system, and I had a great team to help me with this too.

“Familiar working atmosphere”

Hello everyone, My name is Dennis and I have been working in scheduling at LKE-GmbH since February 2020. I had previously completed a six-month internship here, which was part of my retraining as an industrial clerk, and then got the chance to stay at LKE-GmbH. I already felt that I was in good hands here during my internship and liked the informal working atmosphere, which made it much easier for me to get to grips with everyday office life and the associated processes, especially for someone without any practical work experience. I enjoy working for LKE-GmbH and can only give all applicants the tip to simply see for themselves.

“Always new and exciting tasks and challenges”

Hello everyone, My name is Marc S. and I am training to be an industrial clerk at LKE. I always wanted to do something “commercial”. After my student internship at LKE in 2016, this wish was confirmed. After graduating from high school in 2020, I officially started my apprenticeship at LKE and never looked back. I have already gained a good insight into the Sales, Purchasing and Technical Office departments and have always been entrusted with new and exciting tasks and challenges.

“You are very welcome here”

My name is Stefanie, I am 32 years young and had the opportunity to come to LKE through temporary employment. I’ve been with the company since the beginning of August 2021 and have really enjoyed my job. As a trained office administrator, I work here at reception. My area of responsibility includes invoicing, preparatory work for my esteemed colleagues and much more. I am also looking forward to other areas of work in the future and being taken on permanently by the company. Whether you’re feeling under the weather or just want to get your day off to a good start, you’re welcome here.

“No two days are the same”

My name is Sophie H. I have been part of the LKE team since 2015. After six months of temporary work, I was taken on as a permanent employee. In Grossenhain, I am the link between employees and the HR department and the first point of contact for visitors. Collecting documents is just as much a part of my job as writing invoices and preparing for meetings. So far, I can say that no two days have been the same.

“An integral part of the team, even as a temporary worker”

My name is Kai K. and I started working for LKE GmbH in June 2021 in the Customer Service Team department via a temporary employment agency. I support the CST in its daily tasks, such as preparing quotations and orders and answering and forwarding telephone inquiries. Although I was employed by a temporary employment agency, I was always seen as a permanent part of LKE thanks to my commitment. This also led to me being offered permanent employment by LKE in March 2022.

“Home office works perfectly”

Hello, my name is Anastasiya K., I am a design engineer and have been working in this role at LKE for 13 years. Today I would like to share my experiences with regard to family friendliness and working from home. Working from home works perfectly. The company provides all high-tech products so that you can work flexibly. Great attention is paid to the well-being of the employees and you feel fully involved despite the distance. The HR department is always ready to listen to employees. For me, as the mother of a primary school pupil, a very good solution was found that better reconciles work and family life. LKE has always supported me in my personal matters in the past. I wish all current and future colleagues every success.

“Cooperation based on trust”

I attach great importance to a trusting cooperation!

My name is Waldemar N. I’ve been working at LKE in Marl since November 2011, so I’ve been here for a whole 10 years. I started out as a warehouse specialist and over the years I have worked in the warehouse, production and dispatch departments. I am currently employed as a clerk in the technical office and am mainly responsible for dispatch. I am always very happy when everything has been dispatched or registered with the shipping company at the end of the day. I chose this industry back then because I was particularly interested in logistics. That’s exactly what I found at LKE and I still appreciate it today.

“Varied and challenging tasks”

The work at LKE is very varied and challenging.

My name is Marcus T., I am 34 years old and have been part of the LKE team since August 2019. I was warmly welcomed in the company and especially in the technical office. The first step was to familiarize myself with quality assurance. In order to provide the team with optimum support, training was extended to the areas of work preparation and costing.

Thanks to my many years of experience in the field of welding and my training as an international welding specialist, I have also been employed as a welding supervisor in the company since May 2021.

It’s not always easy to juggle everything as the father of a small family with a toddler. However, in the event of problems or appointments with the child, an optimal solution is always found quickly for everyone.
