"It has been seven months that I have started working at Crown and I can say that it is a great place to work in terms of diversity and inclusion.
From the very first day, I’ve seen nothing but one’s abilities and skills to be a decisive factor and that’s all because Crown values the different perspectives and backgrounds of its employees and fosters a culture of respect and collaboration.
I have had the opportunity to work with people from different nationalities, cultures, genders, and abilities, and I’m still learning a lot from them. I feel proud to be part of such a diverse and inclusive team."

"Since joining Crown in January 2020, my role has been extremely varied! As the Talent Acquisition Manager for Crown BEVCAN EMEA, I oversee our attraction and recruitment strategies for the region. This has given me the opportunity to work on global and local projects on a large scale, whilst building relationships with internal stakeholders, suppliers, and candidates across EMEA.
Crown gives me a sense of purpose by empowering me to help people to expand their horizons. I feel I can be my authentic self at work because Crown celebrates diversity and supports inclusive practices and overall, I see committed people all around me who go above and beyond in their roles. All of this enhances Life at Crown!"

"I have worked in Crown for 3 years having started as a FORWARD Engineer and now being a Sales Manager in Italy. Based on this experience, I believe that motivation and communication are key to getting the right results whilst maintaining a good working environment. These two things go hand in hand because to feel happy and fulfilled in your work, each member of the team needs to feel like they are making a difference and being listened to.
To achieve this, is it important to work as a team, involve everyone and motivate everyone to make a difference. I do this by recognising the achievements of everyone. I think that working this way enables everyone to feel a sense of commitment to our shared goals."

"I have been working at Crown Hellas Can for 7 years now. I first started as a Team Leader and because of the support, I was able to be promoted to Quality Manager.
My daily tasks demand commitment to producing and delivering high-quality products to customers and responsibility for implementing and executing inspection, testing, and evaluation methods to ensure that products adhere to company standards.
Crown Hellas Can has provided me many opportunities so far, the most important being training to level up my skills."

"As one of Crown's employees, I am delighted to work in the Human Resources department.
Since Crown continues to support and encourage disabled people and develop their skills, and I am one of them working here at Crown, I would like to express my pleasure over the diversity that Crown adopts.
By providing an inclusive environment, Crown can tap into a larger talent pool and create a workplace accessible to all. This not only fosters a more diverse and creative atmosphere but also creates a culture of acceptance and understanding."

"From day one at Crown Hellas Can, I have been working with a great team who is always willing to share knowledge.
My day normally is spent between achieving product quality, evaluating food safety standards and ensuring that team members are committed to the production process.
What challenges me more is that I must be multitask during my work. Being responsible for many tasks is something that gives me the opportunity to upgrade my skills on a daily basis.
I am proud to work here and I am sure that they appreciate my contribution to the growth of the company."

"The biggest challenge of any EHS manager is convincing employees to enter into a journey of continuous improvement towards a positive safety culture. I was asked on my initial interview “how are you going to reduce incident rates and improve the health and safety culture”. I decided to embark on a journey of influence and teaching through a series of safety campaigns. These were primarily aimed at safety behaviour and personal responsibility, gradually year on year people buy in to the idea of safety and inclusiveness it slowly becomes normal practice to plan and perform safely.
By progressive health and safety meetings and safety circles it sends a clear message to people inside and outside the organisation “you’re valued, we care”. This creates a positive working environment and with every day added to the board without a lost workday or incident, a sense of pride increases across the site. In short, this value becomes a self-perpetuating motion, nobody wants to let the side down.
I feel honoured to work for Crown, however, I feel extremely proud to have the professional and conscientious workforce we have at Botcherby."

"In 2018, my career journey in Crown started when I joined as an Electrical Maintenance Engineer at the new plant in Parma.
From the first few days in Crown, I have felt at ease with the maintenance team and the company culture. I have continuously received encouragement and been given the chance to grow and develop my technical skills.
I think that one of the most important competencies required to best fulfill the role of Maintenance Engineer in Crown, is the ability to problem solve, this is essential in a dynamic context in which production is operational 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Technical intervention by us is often critical for the effective running of the machinery.
Since June 2023, I have had the opportunity to grow professionally and take on the role of Electrical Coordinator. I am grateful to my manager and to the business for believing in me!
My goal now is to motivate the Team to achieve our company objectives together and continue to grow together in a climate of collaboration and mutual respect.
