The solution provider for industrial automation, process control technology and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) recently welcomed M.Sc. Tobias Schmidt as its 500th employee to the firm’s headquarters in Herzogenaurach, Germany. The computer scientist completed his master’s degree at Nuremberg Tech in the late summer and now supports ProLeiT at its Pharmaceutical, Food & Chemical Centre of Excellence.
“In addition to the many new impressions, I think it’s marvellous that you start directly with an extensive training programme. You take part in an intensive familiarisation session and are immediately integrated into the work processes,” says Tobias when asked what he liked in particular shortly after joining ProLeiT.
The management team are also delighted with the new recruit. Chairman Wolfgang Ebster explains: “Each new employee shows us that we are seen as an attractive employer.”
The global company recently celebrated the official opening of its new building in Herzogenaurach. Featuring roughly 4,500 square metres of ultra-modern office space, ProLeiT has taken constant growth into account and at the same time created the ideal foundations for new innovative ideas and services.
