What distinguishes Westernacher Solutions from other IT service providers?

Westernacher Solutions is an agile medium-sized company that develops sustainable and socially relevant products in the public sector. We see ourselves as a driving force for digitalization in public administration, the justice system and for the church. Three sectors that face major challenges that we understand. We advise and can implement topics. We take a holistic approach to processes.

The second thing that makes us different is that Westernacher is wholly owned by its active employees. Our philosophy “Westernacher starts with We” is reflected in harmonious cooperation with our colleagues, service providers and clients. Openness and honesty are essential values. Despite its growth, Westernacher retains its family atmosphere and community culture. This combination makes us special.

What does the recruiting process look like? Simply explained.

We divide the recruiting process into 3 phases.

• Telephone interview
  In this meeting, which lasts about half an hour, we try to assess whether we are a good match.
• Skill Interview
  In the second phase, we have a one-hour discussion with each other that focuses on professional skills.
• Personal Interview
  In the final step, we attach particular importance to meeting applicants in person and gaining a comprehensive picture of their qualifications and personality. However, applicants should also get a comprehensive picture of us and their potential future job, as we see the application process as a mutual opportunity to get to know each other as equals.

Which applicants are we looking for?

We are looking for applicants who are not only professionally competent, but also share our corporate values. Ideally, you will have a proactive way of working, team spirit, the ability to continuously develop and an interest in IT and digitalization. We value diversity, welcome different perspectives and want to see personality. It is important to us that applicants are motivated to contribute to our team and work together on innovative solutions. Or … to grow and become better.

What benefits does Westernacher Solutions offer?

We offer many benefits to create an optimal working environment for our employees.

• Freedom: Everyone is given the freedom they need to organize their work effectively.
• Flexible working hours make the individual working day easier and can be adapted to personal needs. Depending on the position, we can negotiate weekly working hours of 25 to 40 hours.

In addition, our employees benefit from 30 days of vacation per year, capital-forming benefits and a mobility allowance. As part of the Urban Sports Club, we also offer access to a wide range of sporting activities and wellness programs to promote the health and well-being of our employees.

Your personal highlight at Westernacher Solutions?

I have particularly fond memories of the Company Meeting in December, which ended with a great Christmas party. We meet twice a year at our headquarters in Kreuzberg. This not only offers a very good opportunity for a business update of the individual business areas, which is very exciting, but also creates a platform for personal encounters.

Until then, I had only known many of my colleagues virtually. The opportunity to meet them in person and exchange ideas was very valuable for me.

The absolute highlight was the Christmas market on our roof terrace. The festive atmosphere and the delicious, typical food at a Christmas market made the day extra special.
