Working at WEPA.digital
What's better than hearing it from those who are already part of the team?
"What excites me about my job as a leader in the area of digitalisation/digital transformation is that I can help shape a piece of WEPA's future together with many others. Our projects mean that we work on topics across sites and units, which I find absolutely enriching. All this from an office location that offers a lot of room for creativity and innovative processes and within a team that is agile and dynamic.“
Thomas Röger
Lead Digital Transformation
"WEPA.digital has shown me that a family business does not have to be conservative. As a young tech-savvy person, I found myself in a working environment where you feel equally welcome on both a human and a professional level - enough freedom for creative ideas included!"
Nils Kroschel
Technology Specialist
"Since the beginning of 2020, I have been able to learn and grow a lot in our company and team here in Düsseldorf. It's fun and challenging to be part of a company that knows and lives its roots, and at the same time isn't afraid to challenge the status quo."
Celina Schmitt
Digital Project Manager
"The flexibility and agility of WEPA.digital makes it easy for me to combine my management master with my job as a working student. On top of that, it’s really fulfilling, encouraging and helpful to be able to apply my theoretical knowledge from university in digital projects for the WEPA Group straight away and gain working experience simultaneously. I am grateful for my time at WEPA.digital and can highly recommend a working study there."

Inhouse Consulting

The pragmatic implementation of new ideas and innovative solutions is just as important to us as the analysis and improvement of existing problems from everyday work.
Exemplary Projects
Our creative space: The WEPA.digital Hub
In the heart of Düsseldorf
WEPA.digital is based in the heart of Düsseldorf. The WEPA.digital HUB is located in the historic "Alte Senffabrik", which was converted into a modern event and office location in 2019. Previously, it was the production and storage facility of ABB Mustard for a long time, which now belongs to the Löwensenf Group. The main railway station can be reached in 15 minutes on foot, the airport in 20 minutes by car.
Where ideas become reality
The two-storey building offers various meeting, event and communal areas and space for up to 70 people. The location is complemented by a spacious inner courtyard and a small atrium. Above all, the WEPA.digital HUB is intended to be a special place for collaboration, creativity and "out of the box" thinking: a place where ideas can become reality.
Events, Coworking & more
The WEPA.digital HUB is available to all employees of the WEPA Group - be it for conferences, meetings, workshops or the use of one of the desks in the coworking area. More information (overview of rooms/equipment, catering, accommodation, parking, etc.) is available on request. We are also always happy to exchange ideas with other companies, start-ups, initiatives, etc. on forward-looking digital topics. So if you are in Düsseldorf, get in touch and visit us!
We look forward to your visit and hope you feel at home like we do.
