As one of the first women to sell marine coatings to Polish shipowners, Anna Pionka has not only broken barriers, but also helped Jotun become a market leader.

Greek engineer Eleni Boviatsi has a PlayStation setup as her workstation. Currently on a short-term assignment in Norway, she is playing with Jotun's greatest innovation.

With encouragement from Jotun and support from his family, Ashraf Salem ElSayed Abousalem earned a Master’s degree and PhD while building his career at Jotun.

Jotun’s Learning & Development crew uses state-of-the-art technology to create internal training programs. “If we want to create a better Jotun, we need to keep innovating”, Senior Learning Advisor Matthieu Augereau says.

After being turned down twice by a competing company, Nilay Yilmaz (28) landed a job in Jotun Turkey and became the first female coating advisor in the country. Now her colleagues hope to see more women at the busy shipyards.
Là người phụ nữ duy nhất trong phòng ban, Chuyên viên kỹ thuật tư vấn bán hàng Verena Zeriul tại cơ sở Jotun ở Ý không hề xem điều này là thách thức. Bà lấy làm cảm kích vì sự đầu tư của công ty trong việc đào tạo và phát triển dành cho mình.
Những năm đầu sự nghiệp tại Jotun, bà Helle Vines Ertsaas phụ trách phát triển năng lực và đào tạo nội bộ. Nhưng giờ đây bà lại dành trọn vẹn thời gian cho một trong những sáng kiến tham vọng nhất của Tập đoàn từ trước đến nay.
Khi mới gia nhập Jotun, Emma McArthur chẳng hề có kiến thức gì về ngành sơn. Vậy mà tám năm sau đó, tại Houston, Texas, bà đã trở thành một thành viên song hành với chặng đường phát triển rực rỡ của Jotun tại khu vực Châu Mỹ.

We want every Jotun employee to be proud of who they are – throughout the year and all over the world.

Jotun’s employees are encouraged to pursuit new careers within the company. For Yasmine (31) a short-term assignment sent her on a career boosting journey.

Stein Kjølberg is one of many Jotun employees with various positions and countries under the belt. Now the Norwegian is packing his golf clubs and moving to the US.

“Focusing on diversity and inclusion gives huge benefits – both on an individual and corporate level”, says Faten Lubani in Globale Sandefjord and Åsmund Bergem in Jotun.

During their very own diversity campaign this month, the employees at Jotun Philippines are encouraged to bring their true self to work every day.

Yi Huang’s willingness to embrace opportunities has led to a truly global career with Jotun.

Sometimes, taking big risks pays off. For Norunn Folsvik, trying something new sometimes means putting doubts aside.

Sandefjord may not share much in common with his birthplace in Malaysia, but for Melvin Lee, Norway is home – for now.

Hiring people from all over the world can yield positive results in more ways than one. Saying yes to diversity means “we often arrive at better solutions, faster” says the R&D Director.
