"You have to work hard, but the satisfaction you derive from your work is twice as great."

• Will you be involved in the upcoming ASPA (Advanced Sludge Processing By Aurubis) as well?
  Yes, absolutely! I'm excited to share that I will be one of the first to undergo the ASPA training, scheduled for late 2023 or early 2024. I'm really looking forward to being involved in the process from the beginning and gaining a thorough understanding of how it works. Once I am fully familiar with it, I will also provide training to new operator colleagues. It's an exciting new challenge!

• What are some important competencies required in your job?
  First and foremost, problem-solving skills are crucial. You need to be able to identify the cause of issues or malfunctions and come up with effective solutions. Collaboration and communication with colleagues are also vital as you work together to determine the best approach, benefiting from each other's experience.

  Manual dexterity and the willingness to quickly take on new tasks are valuable qualities as well since all necessary operations on the work floor are taught, and prior knowledge or experience is not required. The ability to learn and quickly absorb new information and skills is therefore essential. Safety and hard work take precedence over speed.

• You work in a continuous shift system. Can you tell me more about it? Do your tasks change per shift?
  I love working in a continuous shift system. The biggest advantage is having weekends off more frequently since you work only 3 to 4 days in a row. Additionally, there are variations in tasks between shifts. During the day, production is active, while it's quieter at night. During the night shift, we focus more on cleaning tasks with high-pressure cleaners and preparing everything for the early shift to start production.

• What makes working at Aurubis so interesting?
  The work atmosphere! There is a fantastic atmosphere in every department and team. Yes, you have to work hard, but the satisfaction you derive from your work is twice as great. Moreover, right from the beginning, you are guided step by step, and they don't expect you to know everything right away. Once you have a good grasp of your job, you quickly gain more responsibilities and have more autonomy. This trust is wonderful and gives you a real sense of fulfillment.

  Additionally, there are plenty of growth opportunities, especially now that we have joined the Aurubis Group. If you show your willingness to work, learn, and take on more, you can advance quickly in your career.
