«What I like most is that I can work very independently.»
My name is Marjorie. I have been working for Autoneum in São Paulo, Brazil, since 2014. My tasks as Head Controlling for Business Group SAMEA (South America, Middle East and Africa) include the entire budget process, cost optimization initiatives and the analysis and consolidation of the financial results of the various locations of our Business Group. So a typical working day requires a great deal of concentration and care when working with figures. What I like most is that I can work very independently and the close collaboration with colleagues from various functions around the world that enables me to gain an overall view of the company.
What I appreciate most about Autoneum as an employer is that everyone pulls together, from the CEO down to the production worker. That all our actions should be geared toward values such as “responsibility” and “continuous improvement” very much ties in with my personal beliefs too.
