For specialists and managers

Career starters

Experts don’t fall from the sky, they’re developed

Every career begins with a first day on the job. If you have a degree and are looking for an exciting professional challenge, you’ve come to the right place. At Schubert, you'll find a wide range of assignments for every specification and a great working environment that offers you plenty of opportunities for development. With us, you’ll learn to take on responsibility from day one, and to develop flexible and goal-oriented customer solutions. It’s important to us that we enjoy our work together, remain curious and grow together. If this appeals to you, we would be delighted if you took your first steps with us at Schubert.

Curiosity is a must-have for entry positions

It can be exciting and perhaps a little daunting not to know everything at first. But don’t worry, everyone at Schubert felt this way at the beginning. This is why it’s so important to have a good feeling that you’re working together in, with and for a team – right from the start. As an owner-managed, medium-sized company, we have a real edge over large corporations. Here we don’t work anonymously, but together. Always with a view to the ultimate customer solution. In partnership, flexibly and together.

Professionals

We prefer to deal with solutions than problems

We need people with audacity, ideas and passion to be in the position to deliver innovative solutions that drive our customers forward. For more than 50 years, Schubert has stood for precisely this: constantly pushing back the boundaries in packaging machine manufacturing. Standing still isn’t an option for us, because innovation is a fundamental principle of our business. If you’d like to work on our cutting-edge technologies with us, whether it be the development of IT systems, automation technology or mechanical engineering, give us a call. Share your expertise with us and work on tomorrow’s technologies today.

We never stop learning

At Schubert, personnel responsibility also means that we attach the greatest importance to our advanced training opportunities. The in-house Schubert Academy offers a wide selection of ongoing training and qualification opportunities. Not only as a newcomer, but also later as an established member of the Schubert team. The portfolio extends from language courses and management training to supplementary vocational qualifications and dual courses of study. We’ll support you – with time and money – with your ongoing education. We’ll advise you on your training options, obtain the offers you’ll need in consultation with those responsible, and organise participation in external seminars as well as Schubert-specific in-house seminars.

Teamwork makes all the difference

Anyone who plays in the champions league of innovation has to be able to rely on their team. High-tech solutions can only be brought to life together. A hierarchical top-down approach doesn’t work. This is something we’ve always understood at Schubert. Open doors, a friendly working atmosphere and respectful interaction between colleagues are fundamental to our success.

Diversity is intrinsic to our DNA

The many opportunities for active involvement at Schubert are fundamental to our in-depth innovation. Silos are a thing of the past. And today is all about networked, flexible and cross-departmental collaboration. This also applies to our flat hierarchies. We don’t think in terms of responsibilities and safeguards, but in terms of ideas and solutions. Regardless of where you’re positioned in the company.

Schubert as an employer

As an owner-managed family business, we have a lot to be proud of. Our success story, our ground-breaking innovations and, of course, the fact that we build the world’s best packaging machines. But there is one thing that makes us especially confident: the above-average length of service of our employees. We believe that there is no substitute for this loyalty, and that it says more about Schubert as an employer than anything else could.
