Specialist Staffing Group's UK-listed business SThree plc, the only global pure-play specialist staffing business focused on roles in STEM, has been named one of the top employers in Germany for the ninth year in a row.
In 2021, we made several improvements for our people, especially when it comes to flexible working, work-life balance and personal development. The global pandemic has brought all of these into focus.
The Top Employer Institute was particularly impressed by our approach to talent acquisition, training and development, as well as leadership development and onboarding.
Timo Lehne, Interim CEO of SThree and Senior Managing Director of our DACH region (Germany, Austria and Switzerland), said:
“Our aim is to create a working environment today and in the future in which productivity and a feel-good atmosphere go hand in hand. This places us in the best position to address any challenges that arise while continuing to provide our customers with the best possible service.”
