Inside PERI

Audio herunterladen: MP3 | AAC | OGG | OPUS

When joining PERI with a background in economics at our South African subsidiary ten years ago, Marleen was a fresher to the construction industry. After moving to Germany two years ago, she is now working as an International Sales Trainer at the PERI Headquarter – or as she calls it “as a connecting hub for our sales people”. Together with Marleen, we talk about why this role is more than just a job for her and why Sales Enablement is a function of connecting the dots. In addition, Marleen gives us exciting insights into current developments, such as the influence of COVID on the topic of sales and what challenges will be waiting for us in this context in the coming years.

Der Panama-Kanal, die olympische Schwimmarena „Aquatics Centre“ in London, das Schloss Neuschwanstein. All diese Bauwerke sind den meisten sicherlich bekannt. Aber die wenigsten werden wissen, dass eine Firma aus dem bayerischen Weißenhorn maßgeblich am Bau oder an der Sanierung mit ihren System- und Ingenieurleistungen beteiligt war. PERI, gegründet 1969, ist einer der weltweit größten Hersteller von Schalungen, Gerüsten sowie Anbieter von Ingenieurbaulösungen und 3D-Betondruckverfahren. In über 60 Tochtergesellschaften arbeiten weltweit 9.400 Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter daran, die Arbeit am Bau wirtschaftlicher, schneller und sicherer zu machen. Zugleich werden neue Technologien erforscht und entwickelt. So entstanden im Jahr 2020 die ersten gedruckten Wohnhäuser in Deutschland.
Im Podcast „Inside PERI“ stellen wir Kolleginnen und Kollegen bei PERI vor und wollen wissen, was sie bei PERI und auch außerhalb des Jobs machen, was sie täglich motiviert und wie sie selbst die Zukunft von PERI mitgestalten. Eben all das, was jeden der mehr als 9.400 Köpfe so einzigartig macht.

The Panama Canal, the Olympic swimming arena "Aquatics Centre" in London, Neuschwanstein Castle. All these buildings are certainly known to most people. But very few will know that a company from Weissenhorn in Bavaria was significantly involved in the construction or renovation with its products and engineering services. PERI, founded in 1969, is one of the world's largest manufacturers of formwork, scaffolding as well as a provider of civil engineering solutions and 3D construction printing processes. In more than 60 subsidiaries, 9.400 employees worldwide work to make construction more economical, faster and safer. At the same time, new technologies are being researched and developed. In 2020, for example, the first 3D printed residential buildings were created in Germany.

In the podcast "Inside PERI", we talk with different colleagues from all over the world. They talk to them about their role and their tasks within the company, what motivates them every day and how they help to shape the future of PERI. In other words, what makes each of them so unique.
