Hear from our Trainees...

  • The LEAP program has been a transformative journey that has allowed me to develop key skills essential for professional growth. I have gained stronger communication and collaboration abilities, learned how to navigate challenges through problem-solving, and applied effective project management practices across different rotations. This diverse exposure has expanded my understanding of the business and strengthened my ability to work with people from various backgrounds. I believe these experiences have prepared me to make meaningful contributions to the company while continuing to grow personally.

  • Looking to kickstart your career in manufacturing? Knauf LEAP 2025 Program is a great place to start. I have gained hands-on experience through cross-department rotations, received valuable training, and felt truly supported in my development. One exciting part for me is joining new projects: I start knowing nothing, but each time I learn so much along the way. It is a fast-paced, enriching journey that helps you build real skills and confidence. I highly recommend it to anyone ready to take their first big step!

  • The LEAP program has given me a platform from which I can make meaningful impact to the plant’s operations, whilst having guidance and support from the manufacturing and management teams. The flexible nature of the program has allowed me to explore areas that interest me and in turn leverage my strengths to design improvements for the plant.

  • As a LEAP trainee, I feel strongly supported, thanks to our facilitators who work hard to create a nurturing environment where all feedback is always welcome. Moreover, I have found the networking with other trainees across the APAC region surprisingly beneficial than expected. It is inspiring that, even with our diverse backgrounds, we are all on the same journey of continuous improvement-always seeking ways to get better and learn new things.

  • Being in this management trainee program has been a game-changer for me. It's not just about sitting in a classroom—I've been given a chance to jump in and get real-world experience. The projects have been challenging, and I've learned a ton, not just about business, but about myself too. I'm really glad I've had this experience, and I'm excited for what's next.
