Last but not least I like to join sport courses in the Metrocenter after work with my colleagues.

I am Thomas and I joined this nice company in 2007. I have been working in different roles since then, always around the topic of Human Resources and IT. Right now, I’m the Domain Owner of HR processes and solutions at METRONOM. Besides spending time with my family, I love to play golf – and that is one more reason to love working here: At such a big company you find groups and communities for everything! So I have been playing golf with colleagues on a regular basis for two years.

Hi, I'm Andre and I'm an IT Consultant at METRONOM. During my time at Metro I installed servers, set up databases, virtualized systems, optimized processes and much much more. 15 years full of changes, but none as big as what's to come. SETTING THE PACE IN FOOD AND TECHNOLOGY - just a claim? No! It shows the need for information technology, individual solutions and new ways of thinking in order to make the next big steps in the digital world together as METRO. As IT Consultant for the IT Operations Domain, I ensure that our colleagues receive the best possible technology for their solutions. That we deliver our solutions faster and more uncomplicated with better cooperation. That everyone's pulling together. There are no problems, only solutions!

Hi, my name is Patrick - and I am the "lucky rooster in the basket" of an almost all-lady HR Team supporting METRONOM and its employees! :) My passion is you, the individual with your individual stories.

But what really drives me most is the spirit of cultural change you can currently almost grasp when walking through Be9 - let's keep this spirit alive!

Hey there, I am Tobias and started in the mid of 2018 as Full Stack Developmener at METRONOM.

It is a great place for software developers, because you can choose freely which technology you and your team want to work with and we all know, software is written as team and the team here is great!

My name is Ralph and I'm working currently as a Product Owner and Domain Architect for METRONOM. When I started as a project manager and team leader ten years ago, even in my wildest dreams I couldn't imagine which possibilities METRONOM offers to me.

I wanted to get agile - done. I wanted to introduce solutions based on open source - done. I wanted to be a Product Owner - I am. I wanted to be a Domain Architect - I am. I want to create financial solutions with excellent teams for our customers - in progress. I want to research the potential of blockchains for our company - in progress. I want to shape METROs sustainability (E-mobility) - in progress.

I love to shape and I love changes. It's a great opportunity for me to show my thankfulness as a brand ambassador. I'm curious about what comes next!

Tic, Tac, Tic, Tac, setting the pace means for me, David, growing METRONOM and looking after our office in Berlin. If you are ever around, join our office and feel the people, see the products we are creating and get inspired by the possibilities we offer.

With advanced level subjects in Fine Arts and English, I actually intended to stay in Berlin, doing something with media and really creative…10 years later, I must admit, that doing international multi project management, coordinating diverse project teams, travelling to Lahore, Tokyo and Bucharest has quite a lot to do with media and requires a creative mind when it comes to solution finding. Also, I work with so many great people of different cultures here at METRONOM. My name is Patrizia and I’m a METRONOMian who lost its heart to retail.
