Knauf Insulation Ltd. (KI) is growing rapidly geographically, in terms of turnover and in the breadth of markets it covers. This has lead to a need for a new incumbent to co-ordinate new product development and certification across the KI European glasswool plants (Europe and CIS). The position will also provide limited support to product application development and, on occasions, will require some involvement in similar activities in the stone mineral wool and foam insulation businesses.

Company Profile

The Knauf Group (www.knauf.com)

Established in 1932 in Perl an der Mosel in Saarland by the brothers Dr. Alfons Knauf and Karl Knauf, Gebr. Knauf Rheinische Gipsindustrie was the nucleus of the Knauf Group (www.knauf.com) which operates worldwide today. After the Second World War a new beginning was made by building a gypsum plant in Iphofen in Northern Bavaria, which is still the headquarters of the Group today. The Group which is owned by the two lines of the family, Dr. Alfons and Karl Knauf, was run as a family business by the two cousins Baldwin and Nikolaus Knauf until recently. Since mid 2008r, there are two Group CEO's, Mr Manfred Grundke and Mr Hans-Peter Ingenillum.

A multinational producer of building materials and construction systems, the company is operating more than 150 production sites in over 40 countries and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of building materials. Knauf has a workforce of 22,000+. Last year, the turnover was in excess of EUR 5.5 billion.

A strong characteristic of Knauf is the courage for visions, innovation and investments as well as simple decision-making processes and a wealth of ideas on the part of its personnel.

Originally a producer of conventional gypsum, Knauf has developed into a group of companies in the industrial sectors of dry wall installations, insulation technology and plastering. Another extensive segment is moulded and injection moulded parts as well as other related activities.

Closeness to customers, the establishment of long-lasting, special customer relationships by offering first class advice and appropriate expert service for top-grade products and systems: this has been the Knauf way to market. For this purpose it is necessary to have state-of-the-art plant technology that is subject to an ongoing development process.

However, the future also lies in the hands of talented and highly motivated employees. An important aspect is the "family culture" which prevails in the company: Learn from one another, hold together, pass on knowledge, assume the role of mentor, take fast and direct paths and press for special achievements. All of these are facets of the company culture.
