Gang, IT Support Executive, Vestas China:
“I heard about the job from one of my friends who said that Vestas is a company with many career opportunities and exciting challenges in the IT field. And it’s true.”
Wang, who has taken the jump from business management to IT management, is planning a long career at Vestas and in a Chinese market experiencing explosive growth.
Managing technical challenges
”My responsibility as an IT supporter is to handle a variety of both large and small technical challenges on a daily basis. Since joining Vestas, I have become very focused on a career in IT management. I’ve already specialised in business management and have five years of experience with IT support. At Vestas, I have taken both internal and external courses in IT and English, so I feel that I’ve gradually become equipped to attain the goals I’ve set for myself.”
”At Vestas you have the freedom to show your abilities. I really do my best to get the most out of myself and my surroundings. If I can solve a technical problem after having worked on it for several hours, then I really feel ecstatic.”
Blue skies for 1.3 billion people
”When you live and work in Beijing like I do, it’s not hard to see the prospects in modern energy. For example, the local authorities have launched ”Blue sky days” to ensure that the capital lives up to international air quality standards.”
”In a country with 1.3 billion people and a fast growing economy, there’s a general need to develop wind, solar, and bio energy. Modern energy means less pollution and sustainable development opportunities. I’m sure that China’s handling of environmental problems will end up influencing the rest of the world.”
A global and local team
”Because people from different countries do not think and work alike, the corporate culture and network at Vestas are both very important. Cross collaboration and the feeling of being part of a global and a local team widen people’s horizons and behaviour.”
Get closer to modern energy
“I heard about the job from one of my friends who said that Vestas is a company with many career opportunities and exciting challenges in the IT field. And it’s true. Vestas is growing rapidly in China, so I’m looking forward to a long and exciting career. If you’re considering working for the leader in modern energy, my advice is: There are always opportunities for people who are well prepared.”
