PEOPLE STORIES
-
At Knauf, the commitment to nurture future talents through Leadership Accelerated Program (LEAP) is outstanding. As a candidate myself, I feel deeply valued and supported, both at home team and across Asia Pacific region. The program structured multi-department rotations, targeted bootcamp and courses for my role. My most valuable privilege is to have direct engagement with Knauf APAC leadership providing invaluable insights and guidance to plan my career path successfully. In my home plant, Sydney, I witness firsthand the company’s efforts to enhance the processes continuously with customers and future generation in mind, such as improving customer’s access to last-mile delivery tracking, installing improved heat recovery system, minimising water with better formulation, and conserving virgin materials with advanced recycling methods. Nonetheless, Knauf does not shy away in investing to provide excellent work environment with the recently furnished plant, working space and testing facility. As I embark on this journey, I am proud to be part of team that is not only preparing me for future leadership roles but also driving breakthrough objectives set by Knauf Global and delivering superior products and service for our customers.

IMPACT AS A RIPPLE
To thrive in your career is to feel a part of something bigger, to understand that the impact you can have can be seen on many levels. One individual taking an opportunity to learn a new skill has a ripple effect that spreads a positive impact outwards…. That person’s team is now stronger and is able to bring a new idea to life. This new idea then means the business is in a better position to impact our wider society, environment or marketplace.
It all starts with opportunity.
