Employees about Friedr. Dick

Niklas Hansen, industrial mechanic in training
“I decided to do commercial training as an industrial mechanic and wanted to get to know as many different areas as possible. I knew Friedr. Dick as a manufacturer of files and was surprised about the many different activities that take place in production. What impressed me, however, was the mutual spirit of cooperation and the informal working atmosphere, in which I immediately felt at ease.”
Özdemir Sahali, production employee at the polishing plant
“I was practically born with knives. My father worked in the production of chef's and butcher's knives at Friedr. Dick for over 40 years and in a way passed his job on to me when he retired. It makes me incredibly proud that our family's history is so closely linked to the Friedr. Dick company. Tradition is a living reality here and knowledge is passed on from generation to generation.”
Melinda Dreizler, Product Management
“After graduating from high school, the dual study programme was the perfect combination of theory and practice for me. I consciously decided against joining a large corporation, instead opting for Friedr. Dick as a traditional, medium-sized company. I wanted an employer that would allow me to take part in decision-making processes, to take on responsibility and to personally identify with the products. I now work in Marketing & Product Management and am responsible for making the F. DICK brand even better known worldwide.”
Hubert Schwarzkopf, engineer & product developer
“My start at Friedr. Dick is now over 25 years in the past. It all started with my diploma thesis, which I wrote at Friedr. Dick. Now, as an engineer, I am responsible for the development of new, innovative products and I can contribute my ideas to my work every day. Friedr. Dick is over 240 years old and the company history goes back to a Swabian craftsman and inventor – it makes me proud to be able to contribute to this success story.”
Sven Peters, Quality Management
“I started at Friedr. Dick as a career changer and worked in quality management in close proximity to our products and hand in hand with production. What's exciting for me is that no day is like the other. There are new challenges waiting every day – not least because of the large number of products Friedr. Dick has in its range. Our customers include farriers as well as professional chefs and goldsmiths. All of them expect products of the highest quality.”
Annika Götz, Internal Sales
“Already during my training period, I felt very comfortable in the sales department and realised that I enjoy the contact with our customers and the active advising and selling. Now I’m a full-fledged indeed member of the internal sales team. What makes my job especially exciting is the teamwork, the different customers and the new challenges every day. Visiting trade fairs and advising on new products or projects are also interesting and add variety.”
