Lars gives an insight into his work as Value Engineer und Product Manager at 4cost<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Why did you join 4cost and how? What have you done before?<\/h3><\/div>During the last 25 years I have worked internationally as an engineer, consultant, global service delivery manager, bid manager, head of department and account manager. After having worked for some time in a medium-sized IT company, which unfortunately was increasingly characterized by grievances, I felt the need for a change.<\/p>\n
Back In February 2021, I got in contact with the management of 4cost for a possible job. Looking back at my previous fields of work, it became clear to me that the activities that had fulfilled me professionally where always technically oriented. The role as Value Engineer at 4cost promised exactly this opportunity. An open and honest exchange took place about our ideas about this position. The management of 4cost and I found many matching points, so that in June 2021 we began our journey together.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
