What does the role involve?

Hilti Outperformer is a two-year program, where you’ll quickly be involved in a range of international projects, cross-functional rotations, with lots of exposure to senior management. It’s fast paced and challenging, but we’ll closely coach and mentor you. The program is split into four main stages of work:

  • 6 months on a strategic project in regional headquarters
  • 3 months on an international strategic project in another region

Our unique culture and career development opportunities have gained worldwide recognition - we’re proud to be named one of the World's Best Workplaces™ in 2023 by Great Place to Work (GPTW).

What do we offer?

Show us what you can do and in return, we promise you the experience of a lifetime, the opportunity to work internationally and a fast-track career in global senior management with an unlimited contract. You’ll also take part in some fascinating courses and events:

  • Leadership training – a course at a renowned European business school
  • Business management training – development training at Hilti. A focus on business knowledge, leadership styles and communication skills to unleash your personal strengths
  • Global summit – 4-5 days at our global headquarters in Liechtenstein. Deep-dive into global business units, soft skills like situational leadership and international networking
  • Social project – 7-8 days of ‘building a better future’ to improve life conditions for those in needs

What you need is:

  • You hold a master's degree (economics, business administration, international management, computer science, engineering, marketing or finance).
  • You’ve spent at least three months, and up to two years, in a professional environment, like an internship, apprenticeship or work experience, or have just started your career and want an opportunity where you can perform well and progress.
  • You are a multilingual talent, fluent in English and at least one other language.
  • You have gained international experience through your work or studies and have spent between 3 months to 2 years in a professional environment.
  • You enjoy learning and are mature, assertive, curious and dedicated.
  • You're a flexible team player, with good communication, social skills, and enthusiasm to inspire others.
  • You're internationally mobile and is a global thinker who is keen for diverse cultural experiences and the opportunity to work abroad.

Why should you apply?

We have a high-performing culture for highly passionate people. If you’ve never worked in sales or construction, that’s not a problem. Success at Hilti is down to teamwork and ability, no matter what your background is.
