We have asked our employees for their opinion

Bastian Billmann Asahi Kasei

Challenging but incredibly rewarding!

My team is met with an ever-increasing number of customer projects. Turning a new, empty room into our next battery laboratory is a sometimes challenging but truly awesome task to be working on right now! We have a small yet strong research and development department.

Being a (electro-) chemist, working in this synergistic environment at Asahi Kasei Europe is a great opportunity as it offers valuable insights to other fields of chemistry and allows for exciting and productive discussions.

My advice to You: While previous contact to Japanese culture might be a starting advantage, it is not a prerequisite – as shown in my case. Being open-minded and passionate about your work, that will do the trick.

Battery Laboratory Engineer (Joined 2022)

Miguel Galvan Asahi Kasei

I have found some good friends here!

I really like to support the customers to evaluate our products, and later, to help them to develop new products with our semiconductors, also I really like that our team always work tight together to achieve this goal, both our colleges in AKM EU and AKM Japan.

I think, that in this company, it stands out how the company cares about the health of the employees.

My advice to You: I would advise to new recruits to maintain an open and clear discussion with colleagues and managers to avoid possible cultural miscommunication.

Tatiana Falca Asahi Kasei

Diversity, innovation and being open for new challenges.

I can name three things that I enjoy the most in my daily work. First, are the people that I work with and their diverse background. Second, I like the sustainability aspect of my work as well as the impact it can have on our company and beyond. Lastly, I enjoy continuously learning about new topics.

Asahi Kasei Europe for me is a big and diverse family with one mission – to lead our company’s global growth towards a sustainable and healthy society in Europe and beyond.

My advice to You coincides with Asahi Kasei values: To be yourself (Sincerity), to be open minded (Creativity) and to be brave especially when feeling challenged (Challenge).

Working in a multi-cultural environment is a unique experience. Our team is more open to listening the opinion, ideas and views of each and every team member. It is very dynamic and welcoming. Asahi Kasei Europe is a place to learn and grow. It is also a great platform to showcase my knowledge, strengths and capabilities.

My advice to You: Each person is unique and strong and capable in their own way. Respect each-other, find a way to communicate and understand to make the best out of it.

Fumio Fujimori Asahi Kasei

Diversity and inclusion culture.

My favorite part about work is that IT/DX can contribute to the business directly. Our IT Team can align personal interests with company objectives all together.

Asahi Kasei Europe (AKEU) is the place where various professionals are gathering and taking on new business challenges together. Employees from different cultures and countries enjoy working as one in AKEU.

My advice to You: Stay curious, Learn continuously, Enjoy AKEU!

Fumio Fujimori

Mozhgan Kabiri Asahi Kasei

Authenticity, inclusivity, and a clear set of core values.

My favorite part? Connect with colleagues. Strong networks enhance work satisfaction. Their combined efforts yield better outcomes than individual contribution.

Asahi Kasei Europe thrives on innovation, collaboration, and a commitment to excellence, creating a positive and dynamic work environment.

My advice to You: Every day is a chance to learn and contribute!

“Creating for Tomorrow” - To do your best!

In Accounting, I am connected to all departments inside the company. This means I am literally in touch with each of our colleagues, which I like a lot. Most important about Asahi Kasei Europe (AKEU) for me is, that it is a Japanese company and I can dive into Japanese culture. Because I have a Japanese family, working in AKEU and exchanging culture and knowledge is a great opportunity.

My advice to You: Be open and try to connect with all people in AKEU. Discover all the nice cultural possibilities that is given in Asahi Kasei Japan/Europe. And of course, join the softball team! We need you!
