Passion for family and career

Passion for family and career

Margot Pircher started her professional journey at Getzner Textil straight after secondary school and completed an apprenticeship as an office administrator. She then managed the warehouse and transport logistics department (then the invoicing department), which was of course much smaller at the time than it is today. The company has grown considerably since Margot started her career. However, what she still loves about the company is the family atmosphere.

After almost ten years at Getzner, Margot decided to take a break to devote herself fully to her children. ‘It was a conscious decision to have more time for my children,’ she says. However, she always remained active: voluntary work, professional reorientation and training as a qualified life and social counsellor (based on logotherapy) honed her skills. Margot's return to Getzner initially led her into corporate development. Here, Margot's organisational talent and social strength were particularly appreciated. But Margot also immediately felt at home at Getzner again. ‘A lot has changed, the company has grown a lot, but the family feeling has remained. That was one of the reasons why I was happy to come back,’ says Margot.

Flexibility is a top priority

to contribute life and social counselling skills. ‘I really enjoy organising and bringing people together. ‘The CTO area is the largest at Getzner Textil, which is why I come into contact with many different personalities. This makes my work exciting and challenging at the same time. My strengths are valued and given space here,’ Margot is convinced.

Holiday care as a highlight

Margot's story is an example of how Getzner not only enables professional fulfilment, but also promotes personal flexibility. ‘I like being a mum and at the same time I like being professionally active. The company gives me the opportunity to combine both,’ Margot enthuses. It shows that it is possible to grow in your job without having to give up your family life. ‘One highlight in the area of work-life balance is the company's own holiday care. Tochter hat die Zeit dort richtig genossen und für mich war es eine echte Erleichterung“, erzählt Margot begeistert.
