Great Team
Hello, my name is Lukas and I am the manager of the Digital Products team. I joined DHL IT Services in 2021 as project manager for development of Express Mobile application. After the successful delivery in 2022, I moved onto the Digital Products project in an operations and collaboration-oriented role of a service owner, which later transformed into Team lead role for the whole project. This role and working at DHL is providing me with the right balance of support and challenges, which I have been able to transform into opportunities to develop my knowledge, skills and career, as well as to meet people from various backgrounds and thus broaden my view of the world.
The team and I are looking forward to having you onboard!
