ARTUR HAIN

 

 

 

"Häring recognized my talent and kept opening doors for me. Now I am Vice President in the USA – I'd never dreamed of getting this far."

Profile

From trainee to Vice President

Upon completing 12th grade at school, Artur began his career with Häring in 2008 after opting to move directly into a career path rather than doing a high school diploma. He sailed through his training as a mechatronics engineer; during which time his interest and talent caught the eye of sales. He therefore switched departments and began a program of degree studies alongside his work. With the support of Häring and dedicated perseverance, including investing time in his career after work and at weekends, Artur made rapid progress. This ambition has now paid off: Today he is group manager for sales of new parts and within the scope of plant development is set to move to the USA as Vice President of the new location.

Sales:
A look behind-the-scenes

"My task begins as soon as we receive an inquiry. Given that my roots tend more towards technical sales, from the very outset I approach the customer and show them where and how we produce the parts, and naturally also offer an insight into our innovations. From this point onwards, I support the customer until the part in question progresses to series production. At this stage I also manage the entire handover, draft full documentation, and prepare and carry out audits at suppliers. As such, I coordinate the entire process from quality assurance through to sales and technical development. The important point is that we work hand in hand as a team."

Next career step: Vice President, USA

The biggest challenge?

"The challenge in America will definitely be the different culture. Not only creating something entirely new without the basis of an existing framework, but also the overall management in the USA will be extremely exciting."

An easy decision?

"I wanted to take the next step for my career, as ultimately, over the years I'd always had such great people opening doors ahead of me. When Jürgen Häring showed me the photos of the new location in the USA it all fell into place. Taking on the role of Vice President and consequently being responsible for the entire operation on site was a really easy decision – I'd never have dreamed of getting this far."

Wanderlust or homesickness?

"Previously, I might perhaps have been a little homesick, as I'm a family person. But today, the technology of FaceTime and the like makes everything really simple. And I'm not going alone. Häring has also made it possible for my girlfriend to accompany me. The international character of the company together with the manner of support from Häring is definitely a plus for me."
