We are happy to introduce Team Staff

No team works well without a couple of people keeping the overview and the team together. Team staff makes sure the overall operations run smoothly. Head of Human Resources Irene Prinz and Office Manager Alina Knoop take care of #teamchemondis.  

At CheMondis we believe that a happy team member is a productive team member. Every day, we try to make our entire team feel as good as possible, at work and after work. While offering a variety of employee perks, which vary from company field trips to simply having a dozen of donuts (and a basket of fresh fruits) in the office, we try to uphold a office environment that sparks a sense of unity.
