Challenging and encouraging

Training up-and-coming talent is extremely important at Gerresheimer. The tasks assigned to apprentices are designed to constantly encourage their development. This includes learning from experienced colleagues on the job just as much as acquiring technical and commercial background knowledge at their vocational colleges or on their accompanying degree course. Most apprentices are trained at Gerresheimer's German sites. In addition to traditional training, the company also offers dual degree programs and GxGo!, a trainee scheme for recent university graduates.

Gerresheimer is already accepting applications for apprenticeships starting in 2019.
