As a subsidiary of Porsche AG, Porsche Werkzeugbau is part of the Volkswagen Group. As such, it enjoys the advantages of belonging to a group, but always retains sufficient flexibility and manoeuvrability. The family climate and flat hierarchies mean short communication and reporting paths and create a personal working atmosphere. By belonging to a corporate group, our employees have excellent opportunities for professional development in a variety of directions and positions.

Our employees see themselves as “doers”: They like to take on new challenges and are used to thinking outside the box – because the project landscape at Porsche Werkzeugbau also goes beyond the automotive industry. They might be pressing doors for single-family homes or designing and manufacturing disinfectant dispensers in parallel for the group, for example. Boredom? Routine? Everyday? We don’t know the meaning of these words at Porsche Werkzeugbau.
