Meet Alexandra – one of the women responsible for managing the delivery logistics of the DB Schenker anniversary sneaker.

"I like to drive. And I like being with people."

As part of our corporate social responsibility, in 2017, DB Schenker sponsored the first logistics technical class in Egypt in cooperation with El Sewedy Technical Academy. Mariam is an alumna of the Logistics Academy, and the First Egyptian Female Forklift Driver.

"We fit together like a big puzzle, from really young people to more experienced ones, and experts to generalists."

Maarten created a team of extraordinary truck drivers in the Netherlands who enjoy the friendly atmosphere at DB Schenker and just love to drive around with their trucks.

“I had the opportunity to grow with the company and saw the development of the whole group. This is amazing.”

"I am developing and leading my team members to not only achieve our team goals but also aim to guide and help them to become leaders"

"If I trust my team, I don’t need to control them, I am then more efficient and can focus on additional tasks to bring value to the company and to society!"

"Sometimes the best 'you' have is not enough. You’ll find 'the best' by working together."

"Every day and every project is a new challenge that inspires me to look in new directions, develop new ideas, and find creative solutions."

"Interactions with customers really brighten up my day" (Elisabeth) "It is impressive to sit in a truck. I like to be high above the road." (Eddy)

“Do not try to please everybody – either in your business or private life. Do not forget to also take some time only for yourself.”

“If someone sees your potential and trusts you, great support will follow.”

“A BIG perk of this role is that I still get to handle environmental-related initiatives, a true passion of mine.”

"I have grown personally with this job, and I’m very thankful for getting the opportunity to be a part of such a great team."

"DB Schenker supports me in maintaining my passionate spirit. It is a place where I am able to show my ideas and develop them."

"I really enjoy this working atmosphere with the different cultures!"

"Challenges are formative – it's what drives me to grow."

"I always knew I would end up working in the industry. Must be due to the genes – thanks dad."

"At DB Schenker, we prepare our employees to tackle the changing demands of digital workplace transformation. Our main goal is future readiness."

"DB Schenker opened a door to a completely new world for me!"

"We live by the ‘One Team, One Goal’ motto, and the ‘why’ of DB Schenker blends well with my personal why.”

“DB Schenker may be a large corporation, but it also has a large heart.”

“I want to make it easier for all our team members, so that they can work smarter, and not harder.”

“I have a strong passion for geographies and working with people from different cultures. Diversity inspires me and it moves me forward every single day."

"With every project we complete, we are learning and developing."

“My brother worked in trucking and I liked what he was doing; that’s why I came to work here.”

"Within my team, we always look for opportunities to continuously improve each project."

"What I'm doing here is playing a small part of the big system. But every cog in the wheel is important to bring the customer further."

“I don’t like to narrow it down to a single opportunity; I always like to leave my options open, let's see what's next"

"Diversity has helped me to recognize and respect ‘ways of being’ that are not necessarily my own."

“You must make the best out of what you have. Think positive – always!”

“I am not a number; I’m personally important and recognized.”

“There’s never a dull moment around here.”

"There are so many different attractive and complex work areas, I’d never guessed."

"The great thing about the trainee program is that each trainee can decide for themselves what they want to focus on."

"Working at DB Schenker is exciting and challenging at the same time. Every day is another learning experience."
