“If you got an engineer background, the Rockwool Group offers plenty of opportunities within research and development. There are many mechanical engineers within the company, but it is also an exciting and challenging workplace for electrical and chemical engineers. During my career at the Rockwool Group I have mainly been involved in projects aimed at improving the production technologies and processes at our factories. But recently I have also taken up new challenges within product development.”
“Some years ago I started to chair a cross organisational group of specialist which is working to enhance our ability to excel in our key technology areas. The members of this team are all experienced Rockwool employees and experts in their field – in my case it is the melting process technology. Rockwool production is a highly complex process which is based on some of the most advanced and well-tried technologies in the world. There is, however, always room for improvement, so we are continuously striving to improve our production technologies and processes.”
“The research and development projects are carried out in close cooperation between the operating companies and the headquarters in Denmark, where I am located. So if you are considering a career at the Rockwool Group, you can look forward to a highly professional and international working environment combined with a very friendly culture. You also get to work in a company which is committed to safe products and safe workplaces – something which I personally appreciate very much.”
