NOVOMATIC highlights the diversity in the Group

Under the motto ‘We are NOVOMATIC’, the international technology company brings its most valuable asset, its employees, before the curtain and shows the diversity of the different professional fields within the Group. ‘We are NOVOMATIC’ also provides an insight into the sense of togetherness and strong community that is lived worldwide in the company.

Team spirit, innovative strength and commitment – these are the corporate values that have characterised the globally active group of companies for more than 40 years. Every day, some 21,000 employees around the world continue to write this unique success story. In Austria alone, NOVOMATIC has around 3,000 employees of over 60 different nationalities – a diversity that the Group actively promotes and about which the company has also been narrating on social media platforms and in print media since the beginning of November 2021 under the motto ‘We are NOVOMATIC’.

“A company is usually evaluated mainly on the basis of figures. With ‘We are NOVOMATIC’, however, we want to emphasise how important the human factor is for the company’s success. Because especially in extraordinary times like these, we rely particularly on the solidarity and commitment of our employees,” says Stefan Krenn, Director Group Marketing & Communications.

Whether ‘discoverer’, ‘trailblazer’ or ‘achiever’ – the great diversity of people and professions in the international group with 32 research and development centres and 15 production sites is presented with collages of photos of employees at the headquarters in Gumpoldskirchen, Austria, as well as with personal interviews. In these, the protagonists give a personal insight into their work as well as the diverse professional fields in the group, such as research, development, logistics and production, and reveal what excites them about NOVOMATIC. It is this enthusiasm that is ultimately reflected in the diverse products and services that are in demand from international customers in over 90 countries.

NOVOMATIC offers 13 apprenticeships for training. Hence, within the framework of ‘We are NOVOMATIC’, also the company’s junior staff are showcased. The two apprentices Katharina and Merten talk about their areas of responsibility as a prospective office administrator and as a future print and advertising technician.

‘We are NOVOMATIC’ makes both the togetherness lived throughout the group and the unique sense of community tangible. This is vividly expressed in the energetic teaser film starring the company’s employees. The film scenes were shot over the course of two days at various locations at the headquarters and in its immediate surroundings, such as the surrounding vineyards. The film gets to the heart of the fact that challenges can only be mastered as a team.
