IT STARTS OFF WELL AND KEEPS GETTING BETTER.
After graduating from high school, Konrad began his apprenticeship as a CNC Machinist at Häring’s Polish location in September 2014. His ambition and curiosity quickly led to top results, and he gladly seized the opportunity to gain international experience at Häring Taicang in China. When he returned home, his career in production planning took off in 2016. From an entry-level employee , Konrad grew into a skilled specialist — and later into a department leader. In 2019, he began a part-time logistics degree at the University of Łódź. With that achievement now behind him, Konrad continues to move forward in his career at Häring.
Head of Control and Planning
Position
Konrad, you laid the foundation for your career with an apprenticeship. Was that the right decision?
Everything was completely new to me at the Häring Academy. My high school wasn’t technically focused, so I had never worked with technical drawings or operated machinery before. I had to learn everything from the ground up — and that’s exactly what I was able to do during my training and time at the Häring Academy. Looking back, the hands-on experience I gained during that period still helps me every day at work.
After your apprenticeship, you climbed the career ladder. Where did your drive come from to complete an additional degree?
When I started working in production control and planning, the biggest challenge for me was to understand how all the sub-elements of the production processes had to be coordinated with each other so that the products could pass through the corresponding work processes smoothly and efficiently. This topic was so interesting to me that I decided to study logistics, because it allowed me to learn about the theory behind logistics and compare it with practice - or rather, now I can actively develop the field of production planning.
So your further career path will take place at Häring?
I want to specialize in production planning, expand my knowledge and gain new experiences. Häring gives me these opportunities and supervisors I can rely on. Another plus is that I can share my experiences with colleagues from all over the world - Poland, Germany, the USA, China and Tunisia. Looking back, I can confidently say that what I'm doing now is more than just a job for me.
