Saru, Germany "Whatever I do at this company, I give it my all. It's who I am - full throttle." Saru, Germany "If you know the destination then there is no need to be afraid of taking your foot off the gas now and then to get a better perspective of what is ahead."

Saru, Germany Apply now SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO SLOW DOWN IN ORDER TO SPEED UP Whatever I do at this company, I put my all into it It’s who I am. Full throttle, but not like a race car, more like a speedy, adaptable amphibious vehicle. This is how I approached my first-ever task at Freudenberg; to establish an engineering team in North America from the ground up. Talk about being thrown in at the deep end! Luckily, our German headquarters kept me above water with excellent support and training. I survived and thrived, but there have been some real challenges since I started here in 2016. Mostly its green lights, but watch out for those yellows and reds, I say to myself. Still, if you have a fair idea of the end destination, then there is no need to be afraid of taking your foot off the gas now and then to get a better perspective of what is ahead. And my driver for all tasks and challenges is customer centricity: I really live it, and it helps me ultimately to lead to business growth. And this is what I want to do - have an impact A career at Freudenberg is not really a linear journey anyway, there are always interesting side excursions. One of my best little off-road career trips was Freudenberg’s global leadership & strategy summit, which I attended in 2024. There, in my current role as Director of Global Value Engineering at Freudenberg Filtration Technologies, I interacted with executives from all over the world in an informal setting; learning how future visions are crafted within Freudenberg, what the megatrends are and how the company plans to meet future internal and external demands. Inspiring! I have also been fortunate enough to be involved with Leadership Training, Freudenberg’s Mentoring Program. What have they given me? Tools to move forward. But through all the learning and doing, all the milestones and experiences, what really wows me is how Freudenberg touches lives in so many ways and provides a myriad of solutions. For example, filters for cars.  And that is what I want to do – have an impact. And my way of doing it is to follow my mantra: Leave the process and systems in a better state than when you inherited them. And I am always working on doing that. Full throttle!
