Folker Rickert,
Teamleader Trucking, Lübeck
In the company since 2015.
During my training with another logistics company, I first heard about Bruhn. Later, in a spontaneous "after-hours" conversation, I decided to join Bruhn. That was in 2015 – and I’ve been here ever since. The main reason for my move was a former colleague's enthusiasm about Bruhn’s strong sense of camaraderie. I’ve found that this team spirit truly exists here: everyone knows everyone, and we’re like one big family. You’re not just an employee number.
Regular team events and company celebrations also strengthen this connection – they’re experiences that stay with you. There are also numerous training opportunities, like Polish and English courses, that support personal and professional growth. My job itself excites me: every day brings new, far-reaching decisions and great responsibility – and that feels rewarding.
Challenges like strikes in Finland require quick, flexible solutions. In such cases, many customers choose alternative routes through Denmark and Sweden, which makes coordinating ferry bookings quite demanding. But so far, everything has always worked out in the end, and you go home with a smile.
I’m also fascinated by the industry's dynamic nature. Digitalization, AI-driven processes, and technological innovations make logistics faster and more efficient. At Bruhn, we never forget that drivers are the backbone of logistics. Only when they provide excellent service on the road and reliably serve our customers does the business run smoothly. This important role of drivers is something we deeply appreciate at Bruhn, and we show them a special level of respect.
