My name is Dr. Stefan O. and I'm the manager of the laboratory that develops processing procedures for NBEs. In this role, I'm responsible for both the technical and disciplinary management of my staff.
I work in project-specific teams that typically comprise five to eight specialist areas plus project management. I very much appreciate our team spirit, which is pleasantly focused and forward looking. In my specialist department, I also work as part of an eight-strong management team.

My way to Boehringer Ingelheim

After my postdoctoral period at KIT (the Information and Technology Unit at Kaiserslautern University of Technology), I intended to go into industry. As there was already cooperation between KIT and Boehringer Ingelheim, I knew the company to be an attractive employer and took a position as Laboratory Manager in June 2014.

I arrive, glance at the day's itinerary in the diary and check my e-mails.

Up to 11:30 am

I answer e-mails, organise my group's work by planning working packages and take part in group and departmental meetings.

Joint lunch break with colleagues and then a stroll around the site to clear the mind for new tasks.

I discuss current work with staff in order to be up-to-date, note possible problems and give suggestions for solutions. I also look at data from ongoing projects when I'm not busy with project meetings.

That’s why I work for Boehringer Ingelheim
