Getting Started in a New Working Culture

Ivelina Yordanova | Human Resources Assistent

Ivelina Yordanova feels at ease in her team

She found out for herself that working independently and a strong team spirit among colleagues are not just empty phrases at Liebherr. Some time ago, the HR Assistant moved within the Liebherr Group from Bulgaria to Germany. The new environment and different work routines presented her with several challenges – which she soon mastered thanks to her team’s support.

If I had to sum up what working at Liebherr is like, I would say: Liebherr offers me variety in my work, reliability and team spirit. These aspects are particularly important to me personally, and in my opinion they are what define a particularly good employer.

From her daily work in HR, Ivelina knows that at Liebherr, everyone likes to take on responsibility – but they are also willing to assign it to new employees, based on trust and strong support for each other.

I felt at ease straight away thanks to the support from my colleagues.

“A few years ago, I moved within the Liebherr Group, from Bulgaria to Germany. The change was a big step for me – the process of getting used to a new country and a different work culture created some completely new challenges for me. But thanks to great support from my new team, I was quickly integrated into the HR department. Because of the strong support I received and the trust placed in me, I was able to assist my team and contribute professionally after just a short time. In my current role, I am responsible for job advertisements and applicant management for our commercial and technical positions. I also manage personnel requirements and assist with onboarding.

Here at Liebherr, everyone likes to take on responsibility. However, we are just as willing to share those responsibilities and we give our new employees responsible tasks. I too am able to work independently, and organise myself, and it has been like that since I joined the company. I feel that the team believes in me and trusts in my work and the results I deliver. It is a good feeling."
