Internationality

CAREL offers employee development programs with the possibility for growth all over the world. Job rotation initiatives in different countries are in fact the result of the company’s significant investments in strengthening a Group culture with a highly international nature. Indeed, CAREL is present on every continent, and our employees based abroad make up 45% of the company’s workforce.

Currently, CAREL has more than 25 expat employees, placed both in Italy and at our foreign subsidiaries.
Each assignment is accompanied by a training plan, either before departure and/or on site, aimed at closing the language and knowledge gap regarding local culture, as well as providing the specific technical skills and cross-competencies needed in the new role.
CAREL promotes the sharing of ideas, knowledge and skills between different international markets, through a solid network of colleagues from different countries and with different professional experiences.

This is how our employees are making the difference, all over the world.

Lorena: “I worked for four-and-a-half years at headquarters, in Operations, before taking the opportunity to move to Campinas (SP), in Brazil, where I stayed for three years in the role of Plant Manager, again as part of the Operations team. This was a very important experience that allowed me not only to strengthen my logistics-production skills, but also to acquire new competencies relating to other company processes, working in close contact with the Sales & Marketing and Finance teams. Moreover, I had the opportunity to learn a new language, Portuguese.”
Alberto: “I first joined CAREL as part of the R&D team, and after eight years, I had the opportunity to work on an interesting IT project at the CAREL subsidiary in Suzhou, China. This was the start of a career path that led me to become Plant Manager. Nine years later, as well as having learnt a new language, I have certainly acquired new skills that cover the whole of the organisation”.
