Dachser takes care of the next generation of logistics talent
All across Germany, 645 young adults started recently their training at the logistics company Dachser. They had a number of professional placement options to choose from: two in business, two in IT, two in the trades, and one as a professional truck driver. The family business in cooperation with universities also offers courses in business administration with a focus on freight forwarding, transport, logistics, computer science, or business IT
“Dachser takes care of its young people and gives them direction and focus. That’s the best way to retain specialists for the future,” says Dachser CEO Bernhard Simon. “As a global player, we train our young talent to work in logistics at the international level. The foundation for a successful career is built on a mix of theory and practice during this time.”
Dachser trains 1,350 junior logistics staff across all age groups in Germany. The training rate is around ten percent. The chances of being hired after completing a successful apprenticeship are excellent. “We offer high-quality training, which allows us to stimulate talent, pass on knowledge, and foster skills and expertise. This lets us fill high-level positions from our own ranks down the road,” says Vera Weidemann, Head of Corporate Human Resources.
In the meantime, the Dachser Education Program has also flourished. One byproduct is that Dachser has been able to export the dual-track training program to other European countries. The education program offers a practical, logistics apprenticeship in the European branches of the logistics company. The program uses job rotation to impart knowledge about freight forwarding. The contents are based on Dachser’s own version of the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce training. The trainees acquire their skills in realistic conditions thanks to trained instructors and on-the-job guidance. At the moment, 35 up-and-coming Dachser forwarding and logistics specialists are completing the program in the UK, the Netherlands, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Hungary.
