Why Tetra Pak?

There are many reasons to choose Tetra Pak as your future employer.  We provide many opportunities and put a lot of emphasis on supporting your development. But do not expect us to tell you what to do or where to go. There are no such rules or regulations. Instead, we expect you to act, make decisions and contribute to the company according to our core values.

Tetra Pak was founded on the business idea that the value of a package shall exceed its costs, thus the value of working for Tetra Pak shall exceed the investment a Tetra Pak employee makes in the company. This means that Tetra Pak is a demanding and rewarding company to work for. 

Growing with the company

Once you join Tetra Pak, there are many ways to grow and develop. You will find security in your own competence, rather than your organisational belonging.  A few examples of what you could do to develop your skills and competence include:

  • Change positions/function and move around the world
  • Participate in training programmes
  • Attend the Tetra Pak Academy, our corporate university is designed to develop the leadership competence areas as identified by management

At Tetra Pak, we believe that your satisfaction comes from developing and using your competence to meet your own goals and those of Tetra Pak. In our opinion, competence is an employee's capability and attitude to use his or her knowledge, experience, and skills to successfully realise the company's business objectives.

You are expected to share your knowledge with colleagues and partners and to always focus on finding the best solution in every situation. This paves the way for creating possibilities by those that are committed to keeping a bright future in focus.

Managing your own development

Our competence development process is the link between business and people. We use it to make sure that each person is in the right position, according to his or her competence, at the right time. Every year, this process will give you honest and relevant feedback on your performance and the opportunity to discuss your future career with your manager. Freedom with accountability is provided for each individual, to use to the best of his or her ability.

The competence development process is important to ensure that we never lose people of high potential because of a lack of opportunities to develop. By using this process we also make sure we create competitive advantages, by developing people with wider experience, giving you the opportunities to cross national, business area and functional borders.

Life balance

Tetra Pak chooses people who see their work as a vital part of life. We want you to give a lot of your energy to your job, contributing to the constant growth and success of the company. But this does not mean we look exclusively for people who will put all their energy in one place. Quite the contrary, your life outside your job is an important source of the energy needed at work. We are convinced the best results are achieved when we create a balance between people from different phases of life.

We value your private life and the experience and stability you gain from moving through different phases of life. Your needs and wishes regarding location, travelling, family, and so on are as important to us as they are to you. This means that you can have a career in your own country if that is what you prefer. We adopt this attitude simply for the reason that the happier you are, the more we all benefit from working together.
