Norman Loop
Area Sales Manager Middle East and Africa, Mühlenchemie
“The Stern-Wywiol Gruppe is a successful family company, because this structure makes us flexible and fast. Ideas and creativity are the secret to success. All employees are encouraged – and expected – to contribute ideas. Managers provide enough room to let ideas grow.”
Ilka Hübner
Head of Marketing Corporate Communication
Ideas, creativity and innovation often require time and courage. The confidence in our performance that we as employees of the Stern-Wywiol Gruppe enjoy is the basis for our creativity, and motivates us every day anew.
Frauke Christina Schmidt
Key Account Manager, SternLife
“We want to be likeable, and we are. Our team, our customers, our products. We only sell products we ourselves like and are confident in. We’ve learned that these are the only products that fly. Expanding our production capacity will take us another big step forward, technologically. Being at the leading edge or ahead of it, makes us attractive long-term.”
Frank Hellerung
Head of Sales, SternMaid
“Being curious means being courageous, willing to learn and willing to improve. Curiousity arises from interest, and interest is appreciation and drive at the same time. Only someone who is curious can truly put themself in another person’s situation, understand it, bring about partnerships and find good solutions for both sides. I always look forward to new project discussions with customers, where together we examine whether they can make their product with us.”

Kerstin Schüßler
Head of Quality Management, SternMaid
“To me, being curious means not remaining stuck in old structures! Looking at where we need to improve and change, getting the team excited, making room for new ideas; making improvements visible, rolling them out in other areas, and benefiting Group-wide from changes.”
Yvo Dwinger
Stock Manager, HERZA
What strikes me every day is how people here treat each other respectfully. A family feeling is very important in the Stern-Wywiol Gruppe and at HERZA.
Martin Ehrlich

“I feel like the daily interactions with my colleagues are very respectful. This has led to the formation of a trusting, family feeling. I feel very much at home in the Stern-Wywiol Guppe, because we interact at eye-level."
Steffen Robra
Head of Operations and Logistics, Sternchemie
“We use the freedom we have in the Group, and use the Group to promote synergies. The courage, ideas and enthusiasm to think outside the box are encouraged, in order to be successful. The focus is on the solution to the problem, not on the problem itself. Trying new things that don’t work is not a failure, but part of the learning process.”

Florian Bark
Senior Product Manager
“Our solutions for foods are coordinated: Flavour, colour and texture have to be right. Only with this harmony can successful products be developed.
What’s particularly interesting about my position as Product Manager is that I work across departments, and so am networked with many colleagues globally. Thus, ideas from around the world end up here on tasting spoons.”
Dr. Christina Mesch
Head of Product Management, SternVitamin
“My scientific education has always encouraged me to stay curious, never stop learning new things, be open to new experiences, stay abreast of the times and enjoy solving problems. Showing interest in changes and challenges, being flexible and open, and sometimes leaving the comfort zone, to me are important elements in being successful. Having the freedom to try new things and go in new directions plays a major role in this.
My motto: Seek knowledge, and stay on it.”

To give my best in each project. In order to offer a solution that accomplishes the requirements. Integrate knowledge and abilities of every member to create a nice environment and result. Also, make the customer feel comfortable and sure that they have an ally in their day to day business. Have an open mind to receive new ideas and think out of the box.”
