What I like about working at Henkel is that you get a lot of opportunities to expand not only your knowledge and get a lot of experience, but also expand your network. Hard work is getting rewarded, you feel like you are a part of something bigger, and you truly feel valued, which is important!

A global leader in brands and technologies. To be a global leader in brands and technologies means that we strive to be the best in whatever we do.. First, to be a global leader means that our goal is to achieve at least the top three positions in each of our international markets and business segments, and to be a first mover in emerging markets with high potential for growth. We aspire to be a global leader in the degree of trust and appreciation we earn from both our industrial customers and our individual consumers. Second, we aspire to be a global leader in brands. We want our brands to be recognized for their strength, their quality, and their value. This includes all of our brands, in the business-to-business sector as well as our ‘household name’ brands in the business-to-consumer sector. Third, we aspire to be a global leader in brands and technologies– by striving constantly for innovations that enhance quality and provide greater value, to meet our customers’ current needs and to anticipate their future requirements.
