Managing Partner, Europe
Arbeitsatmosphäre
I am passionate about the environment that all associates at K2 work in - it needs to be a lively, fun, positive, competitive and nurturing environment for associates to succeed. Currently, we are working towards this goal - we are nearly there - but we have a planned office move in December that will make this a reality in Stuttgart.
I have read comments about competition amongst associates - we are a sales organisation - we compete amongst ourselves and the market on a healthy level.
Kommunikation
All offices in Europe, Stuttgart included - have monthly sales meetings where everything communicated - we have internal social platforms where company updates are posted daily. On top of this any associate can ask anything that they want to all senior management.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
I believe that we have created a team environment, where all associates are working together and we have regular team events e.g. nights out, team bonding events
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Personally, I am responsible for all offices in Europe. We have Sales Directors in each office that deals with day to day scenarios. The Stuttgart office has struggled in the past, however, over the last 12 months, we have completely overhauled the management structure, team and environment. Currently, I believe that we have a competitive salary structure, clear career progression goals and realistic expectations from each associate.
Gleichberechtigung
We are an equal opportunities company. Everyone is equal.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
We constantly review our salary levels against the market. I believe that we pay a competitive base salary and a very good commission package. We have several associates that are earning 6 figure salaries within 2/3 years of joining.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
All associates have access to the Career Navigation Document which outlines step by step how you can go from joining the company to running a region. This is communicated monthly by HR and is spoken about religiously.
Every associate knows what their promotion targets and are we are promoting individuals across Europe every month.
