Elisabeth Barna Hostettler, Team Lead Material Technology in Switzerland: “I started as a material development engineer 16 years ago. I did a lot of training to specialise in the job, and a few years ago I had the opportunity to take over as a team lead. That presented me with completely new challenges, and I was pleased to accept them.” Elisabeth’s journey reflects a workplace where development is not only encouraged but expected. 

Fio Lu, VP Sales Industrials in China: “I joined HUBER+SUHNER 17 years ago. I deal with a range of topics in my job, including sales strategies, marketing analysis, and building solid relationships with customers in different markets.” Fio’s long-standing career reflects the trust and autonomy we place in our people. At HUBER+SUHNER, different paths lead to shared success – and long-term development is more than a promise, it’s a practice. 

Romina Breu works as a S&OP Improvement Specialist in Switzerland at HUBER+SUHNER: “It is the perfect combination of family and work life. I work 50 percent and have adjusted my workload twice in the last six years. I was on maternity leave and have been able to develop my career at the same time.” Romina’s experience shows that flexibility is more than a policy; it’s a mindset. At HUBER+SUHNER, we put people at the centre of what we do, supporting every stage of life and career. Prior to her current role Romina worked as a Global Segment Demand Planner for HUBER+SUHNER. 

Also Johanna Asher, our VP Sales Industrials Americas in the US, knows that balancing a career and private life can present a challenge: “HUBER+SUHNER was very kind to me when I had a younger child and needed to be a little more flexible in my work life. That was very much appreciated. I felt like they cared about me and my family, not just the bottom line.” Johanna’s story is a reminder that respect and care are not extras, they are an essential of our culture.  

Maria Jozwicka, Technical Project & Program Manager in Switzerland: “Everyone here is very open and the environment is very diverse. From the very beginning I felt included in the team. What I also enjoy a lot is that I can still connect the research work and work on innovation and develop new ideas.” Maria’s role in the Radio Frequency components team allows her to bridge academic research with real-world innovation. Maria started as a Radio Frequency Engineer before she recently changed into Technical Project & Program Manager.
