"Each day in the company brings new spheres of personal responsibility."

Maximilian R., Group Division Manager and enthusiastic supervisor

After studying Logistics Management at the University of Neuss near Düsseldorf, Maximilian faced a luxury problem: selecting the right job from a wealth of offers from renowned companies. He opted for LKW WALTER relatively quickly.

What does the WALTER GROUP company have that others don't? Maximilian's answer is simple: "Apart from the unbelievably collegial atmosphere within the company, there are two things. Firstly, right from the start there is significant freedom to make decisions yourself, and this applies even to trainees. Secondly, there are unique opportunities for further training."

Maximilian, who originally comes from Rosenheim, is more than happy with his career choice. He succeeded in making the leap from Transport Manager to Division Manager in three years. "Each day in the company brings a new sphere of personal responsibility. There are new career options for university graduates, as well as for school leavers with A-Levels. Add to this that management positions are filled exclusively from within the company."

Note: Almost four years after being appointed Division Manager, Maximilian took the next jump in his career to Group Division Manager. Congratulations!

"People with goals can accomplish anything here."

Maximilian's personal tip:

The WALTER GROUP has got to be top of the list for anyone who has goals, who is willing to learn and who wants to achieve something. If you want to take responsibility, you've come to the right place. Because here, everyone has significant decision-making freedom - right from the start.

Frequently asked questions and answers

What career opportunities do I have as a secondary school graduate or university / university of applied sciences graduate?

Very good ones! In the WALTER GROUP you have every opportunity to start your career. If you come from an educational institute with an economic, linguistic or even technical focus, you can immediately and directly join our business. You can join without industry knowledge in the context of an intensive trainee programme which we call "Train the Winner".

Accompanied by your own coach, you will improve your professional and social skills and continuously grow into your future roles. Because the WALTER GROUP is constantly and sustainably growing, new career opportunities always arise.

What career opportunities do I have as an experienced professional?

Generally professional experience or industry knowledge are not necessary for entry into our operational business. Because we educate new employees as part of our "Train the Winner" trainee programme and we cover both theory and practice. However, there are some areas in which we greatly appreciate relevant experience and previous knowledge. For example, in our IT, Legal or Sales departments, where we can offer (young) professionals attractive career opportunities. Our recommendation: Just take a look at our employment opportunities.

Does the WALTER GROUP offer apprenticeships?

The classic apprenticeships such as freight forwarding manager or office clerk are not offered in our company.

What does the application process involve?

In our employment opportunities each advert has a link that takes you to the online application form. Please fill it out and send it together with your application documents. Immediately afterwards, you will receive an e-mail. It confirms that we have received your application.
