Meet The Team - Stefanie Zens

Hello and welcome to #TeamTuesday at the WENZEL Group. Today we have Stefanie Zens from payroll accounting in our conversation.

Hello Stefanie, welcome and thank you for your participation! How are you doing today?

Hi, thank you very much, I am very well!

Super! You've been with WENZEL for more than 20 years now, would you like to tell us about your journey?

Sure, it's been a long road, to be honest! I started as an office administrator trainee in1997 and then trained to become a payroll accountant and later took a full-time position in this area. From 2006 to 2008, I worked as a temporary employee in the financial accounting department, as I was on parental leave. From 2013, I worked as a part-time employee in the production planning department. In 2015, I moved to the HR department to contribute my expertise, and since that year I have been mainly responsible for payroll accounting.

You are certainly a woman with many talents! What are your daily tasks as a payroll clerk?

Well, I'm responsible for all payroll, such as maintaining HR master data, reporting to social security agencies, creating statements, and tracking time for employees, such as sick leave, vacation, hours worked, etc.

By now we all know that WENZEL is proud of its work environment, would you like to add your own experience?

I get along very well with my colleagues and we support each other as best we can. The feeling of togetherness and warmth surpasses everything. My father worked at WENZEL for 50 years and we were invited to many WENZEL-family parties in the past, so I have known many employees since I was a child.

Wow, that is so good to know! So Stefanie, thank you so much for taking the time to answer our questions.
