The energy industry is facing a fundamental change - and ENGIE Deutschland is playing a key role in this. Young talents who start an apprenticeship at ENGIE become part of a company that not only offers sound training programs, but also an inspiring environment for personal growth and responsibility. From the very beginning, trainees are actively involved in shaping the future of decarbonization and the energy industry.
Moritz Dördelmann, apprentice industrial clerk, gets to the heart of the matter:
"I decided to train at ENGIE because the complete package is impressive: the size of the company makes it possible to work in numerous areas and get to know a wide range of departments. I particularly appreciate the harmonious interaction with the employees - people treat each other with respect and there is always an open ear for the concerns of each individual."
This "complete package" makes the ENGIE apprenticeship unique. Apprentices rotate through various departments, gain valuable practical experience and experience a working atmosphere characterized by respect and openness. Team spirit and support from colleagues and trainers are always at the forefront. Patrick Sattler, one of the dedicated trainers at ENGIE, emphasizes:
"We have a lot of freedom, ENGIE pushes the training incredibly, supports us so that we can really take the trainees with us from an early age through to large projects and also seamlessly continue them later as fitters/technicians. They have to enjoy living and practicing their profession. That is simply joy at work."
ENGIE Deutschland understands the importance of promoting young talent: trainees not only participate in the present, but also shape the future of the company. Kai Hundsdörfer, Branch Manager Essen, aptly describes it:
"We turn our young trainees into the managers of tomorrow. We have various professional development measures."
ENGIE offers its apprentices not only solid basic training, but also targeted support for further training measures such as master craftsman and technician training or degree courses. The new training workshop, a modern training center in Essen, is an important step towards further improving practical training and promoting talent in the long term. Tobias Wachtel, Regional Manager Facility Solutions Region West, explains:
"Our new training workshop will advance the company by allowing us to specifically train ENGIE products, educate, retain, and develop talent, and thus provide our trainees with high-quality support as they start their careers."

The focus: freedom for ideas and professional and personal growth, taking on responsibility and developing personal initiative.
For the younger generation, sustainability is often a decisive factor when choosing a career. ENGIE offers the opportunity to play an active role in the energy transition. Niklas Wiegand, Managing Director of ENGIE Deutschland GmbH, puts it this way:
"ENGIE Deutschland has set itself the goal of being and becoming the leading decarbonization partner for industry, municipalities and the real estate sector. Against this backdrop, we will need many well-trained employees in the future. And here it is important to introduce young people in particular to this topic at an early stage and to give them the opportunity to acquire these qualifications together with us, to grow accordingly and to understand what we want to achieve as ENGIE. And secondly, which is very important to me and I believe is also important to the younger generations today: we are heavily involved when it comes to decarbonizing the energy industry of the future. We want to be part of it! The goal we have set ourselves as a Group is to achieve zero carbon. Pursuing this goal and actively working towards it should be a huge motivation."
From decarbonization to the development of sustainable energy solutions: Apprentices at ENGIE are directly involved in the company's mission. They contribute to achieving the ambitious climate targets and identify with the vision of a "zero carbon" company.
