In the training with Johnson Matthey and Brandenberger AG, I particularly appreciated that the apprentices could work independently, and constantly had the opportunity to learn new things. The tasks in the departments are very varied and the reception service that the apprentices take over provided additional aspects to our training. Throughout the three years I always felt that I was in good hands. My colleagues were always friendly and supportive.

I found the greatest advantage of completing an apprenticeship with Johnson Matthey was the professionalism of my colleagues and the variety of assignments. One learns how to carry out one’s work in an exact and rapid manner and to work out a possible solution for new topics. In addition, one benefits from the many changing tasks within the assignments, because one also learns aspects that don’t belong to the actual repertoire of a commercial employee. I personally found it absolutely fascinating to also see the products that one sells and in some cases to work on them.
Former 1st year apprentice
I began my apprenticeship with Johnson Matthey & Brandenberger AG in summer 2013. At present, I am in the Jewellery & Watches department. This department supplies the jewellery and watch industries with semi-finished products. I was introduced to the daily business and can also already process client orders. I also enjoy working at reception. My friendly and supportive colleagues helped me settle into my professional life very well.

What I find particularly interesting here, and also like very much, is the variety of work that one may practise. In contrast to other training companies, one is fully occupied and may be “in charge of” a given area, for which one is responsible. Here, there is an open and friendly atmosphere, and everyone always takes care to ensure that this continues.
