It was fantastic meeting so many potential Trainees at yesterday’s Systemvetardagen in Kista!

What a great way to spend International Women’s Day surrounded by so many smart women interested in joining the IT industry!

At Fujitsu Sweden we aim to have 40% women in management by 2020, will YOU be one of them???

Lean Management at Fujitsu


Comments Off on Lean Management at Fujitsu

Hello again!

Hope you’ve followe d and enjoyed our first five Fujitsu posts (one from each of our five trainees in Sweden)! In this post I’ll update on the great Lean Foundations course I recently attended at our Gothenburg offices.

Fujitsu’s Japanese roots are visible in many of our ways of working and this is especially true when it comes to the use of Lean management. For this reason, a three-day introductory course is available for employees of Fujitsu who are interesteLean Champions!d in working with Lean in their teams. The course was a fantastic mix of activities, lectures and games and was attended by both Fujitsu colleagues and Master students from Chalmers University.

The introductory course covered key areas of Lean such as; Visual Steering, Waste, Standard Work, 5S – Workplace Organization and much more. The content was really valuable for me in my role and I’m glad I’ve been able to take advantage of th

My Fujitsu Trainee Position and Travels


2 Comments

Hi, my name is Rachel Dee Thor and I’m one of the five new Fujitsu Sweden graduates. Originally from Toronto, I recently graduated with a MSc. General Management from the Stockholm School of Economics. I’m really happy to share my experiences with those of you looking for your own fantastic trainee position after graduation!

 
It’s been just two months since I started here at the Stockholm office and I’ve already learned so much. My position is within our Managed Infrastructure Services (MIS) area where I work with a large retail customer. My team manages a range of services for this retailer such as Service Desk, Technical and Maintenance, Data Center and Network and Communication services. The plan for me as a trainee is to experience all the different areas of this account throughout the program before deciding which role will be a good fit. Since my team is spread out across Europe, this also means I get to do some travelling.

 
To understand the ways of working at our Fujitsu Service Desks, I visited my colleagues up in Östersund last month and then made my way to Poland for a few days last week. Both visits were super valuable in understanding what services we’re managing from headquarters. For the remainder of this month I’ll be attending different trainings. First a three-day Lean course in Gothenburg, then back to the London for a couple days focusing on innovation before rounding off the month in Linköping doing the next module for the graduate program. On a normal day at the office in Stockholm I have a variety of projects and responsibilities. Several of these tasks involve implementing standardized processes at the team management or service delivery level, while I also have the chance to shadow and assist my manager in some day-to-day activities and customer relations.

 

I hope this gave you a little insight into what it can be like as a graduate within MIS, Fujitsu!
