Working at FOSS
We work on a global scale to develop the people working at FOSS. We strive to enhance job satisfaction and motivation by constantly improving the competencies of our managers as well as following up on employee satisfaction.
We know our employees are our strongest asset.
Therefore, we emphasise, invest in and appraise our employees’ knowledge, skills and attitudes, and take pride in creating an environment with trust, confidence and development. We also believe that clearly defined objectives enable people to achieve their performance potential and that the support from the immediate superior is essential. Most important of all; trained, well-motivated and competent employees are a perquisite for success in the future. We manage by values, but also clear objectives, and follow up through regular meetings between the employee and the manager. In these meetings, there is also room to discuss career aspirations and other development opportunities including internal career moves.
You will have the opportunity for internal career development.
As a company, we are small enough for you to get high influence in the job, but we are also big enough for complex development and global careers. If you want to move in a new direction and continue to develop along with your professional capable colleagues, we offer the opportunity for internal career moves inside FOSS. As we are a knowledge-heavy company, this is a win-win scenario for both FOSS and our employees.
