Development made real
We are looking for the next generation of talent to lead our Company into the future!
Hilti Outperformer is a unique leadership development program, where we will guide and train you while you gain experience participating in international projects with a significant impact on the company. Over two years, you will receive the necessary preparation to take on a global leadership position, placing you at the center of our business model and giving you full responsibility from day one.
What You'll do
The Hilti Outperformer program lasts a total of 2 years. From the very beginning, you will work with colleagues from around the world and learn from your mentor and Hilti's Management Committee.
The program is divided into the following four stages:
· 12 months in the Sales department as Account Manager, gaining experience and thoroughly understanding the core of our business: customers, products, services, and software.
· 3 months on a project, where you will take charge of a project in areas such as Logistics, Human Resources, Finance, Marketing, or Engineering.
· 6 months on a strategic project. You will work in Logistics, Human Resources, Finance, Marketing, or Engineering.
· 3 months on a strategic project outside Europe. This will give you an international perspective and allow you to experience different work cultures and market challenges. If you come from a consolidated market, you will work in an emerging market and vice versa.
What You’ll Bring
Our teams are made up of very diverse profiles. It doesn't matter if you've never worked in sales or in the Construction sector, at Hilti success depends on teamwork and each individual's capabilities regardless of their background.
As part of the selection process, you will spend an entire day with a member of our sales team to get first-hand experience of what it's like to work "in the field" and meet current Outperformers in the program.
Requirements
· Master's or MBA students or recent graduates.
· Fluent in English and local language, other languages are a plus.
· International experience through studies, internships, or initial work experience.
· Between 6 and 24 months of professional experience (internship, scholarship, or first job).
· Driving license.
What’s In It for You
Show us what you are capable of, and we will guarantee you a once-in-a-lifetime experience, the opportunity to work internationally, and rapid career development with a permanent contract from day one.
In addition to the specific training you will receive in the four strategic projects during the two-year program, Hilti will provide you with the tools necessary for your future international leadership through a series of courses and events:
Leadership development program: comprehensive learning immersion at the IMD business school in Lausanne (Switzerland).
International summit: 4-5 day stay at our international headquarters in Liechtenstein, participating in various workshops and exposure to the Executive Board.
