Career Stories - Christopher Fischbach

“The best foundation for the future is shared values.”

How would you describe your job and role at Yokogawa?
As HRBP, I am both the contact person for my defined group of employees in almost all personnel-relevant/employment law issues, but I am also the contact person for managers. Together we design the individual business unit, starting with the hiring of employees, influencing the organizational structure, developing employee’s career paths and so on. In between I am also working on other topics like labor law, talent management, employer branding, international HR projects, personnel controlling, etc. In addition to these operational topics, it is the strategic topics that make HRBP an interesting job in the first place. No day is the same in my world and work, as new tasks, questions or problems arise every day.

What is the most remarkable thing you have done at Yokogawa so far?
"A picture is worth a thousand words"
This is precisely why we made a recruiting video last year. From the conception, planning, coordination and initiation, this was a project that was particularly close to my heart and has been successfully realized.

Yokogawa values 'quality of life' for their employees. How do you experience that in real life?
Love your life like you love your job! 
The best foundation for the future is shared values. That is why we always act according to our convictions. For us, the compatibility of private and professional life is more than just a statement. We do our best to reconcile the two and ensure a good work-life balance - for example, in the form of home office, flexible working hours or sabbaticals.

Why should talented people consider Yokogawa as a potential new employer?
Your future is also our future! 
Our employee’s personal as well as career development is very important to us. And that from the first day at work. This means that there is not only comprehensive induction training, but also extensive further training measures. At Yokogawa, we guide you through your whole working life. We offer you long-term perspectives by giving you the opportunity to develop your skills internally across departments and units.
