DPD success stories
Get to know some of our employees and their job stories at DPD.
Changeover
„I started in the field service and was able to get to know the market and the customers intensively. But what always interested me more was the other side, so to speak, the operational side and how the threads in parcel logistics come together. 2 years ago I got the offer to switch to a depot as a junior manager - I accepted immediately. In my job at DPD, 'everything is possible’.“
Leadership in a rush
„5 years ago I started as a receptionist at DPD. I have always found finance and accounting exciting. Today I lead a 4-strong team in billing. Together we master every challenge: from technical components to individual customer requirements. In my job at DPD, everything is possible”
Successful behind the scenes
„As a tour supervisor, I work behind the scenes in parcel logistics. Among other things, I make sure that the parcels end up in the right delivery vehicle. That means I work very closely with the drivers and our transport partners and thus combine handling and delivery. I really like that! In my job at DPD, 'everything is possible’.”
Hands-on personality with passion
„I'm awake at 4 a.m. because I work in shifts. Ideal for me, because firstly I like to lend a hand and secondly I have free time between shifts and can do something with my children, for example. In my job at DPD, everything is simply ‚included‘.”
Sure progres
„Logistics has always fascinated me. It is important to me to be able to make a difference and also to have a future-proof job. So I can calmly sign the lease for my first own apartment. In my job at DPD, 'everything is possible’.”
Lateral entrant and mentor
„As a career changer, I am proud to be able to train new colleagues in the customer service area. Few know how complex the logistical processes run in the background. My very personal challenge is to bring parcel logistics a little closer to every customer. At Christmas, for example, it can happen that a package arrives later because twice as many packages roll over the conveyor belts than usual. Most customers then understand. That is my very personal sense of achievement. In my job at DPD, 'everything is possible’.”
