Careers Stories

We’re a close-knit team at LEGO® Education. Each of us has a crucial role to play in our products’ journey to customers. Making sure we get everything right the first time is all thanks to **Simran** and her team.

"My team plays a pivotal role in the final step of the customer ordering journey," Simran explains. "We take over after the order is placed, ensure accuracy, resolve any issues, and work closely with the warehouse to get the products out the door as quickly as possible."

But it’s not just about processing orders; Simran and her colleagues also focus on building solid relationships and providing exceptional customer service.

"We’re the face of the company. After the customer decides to purchase from us, we answer questions, provide recommendations, and offer support through the entire process. Customer satisfaction, attention to detail and a proactive approach are key."

"We go above and beyond to ensure that orders are accurate and delivered on time. This also means working with supply planning to reserve inventory for large orders and offer expedited shipping or split orders when needed."

Supporting the sales team by providing them with valuable data and insights is another important aspect of Simran’s job.

"We're constantly looking for new ways to align across all teams and provide them with the information they need to be successful. Embracing a curious mindset, being patient, and continuous learning helps with this."


620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-636.JPG

"I'm always asking questions and seeking out new information. This helps me better understand our products and provide accurate and helpful answers to our customers. Playing with LEGO sets at home has deepened my understanding of the products and their educational value."

"Building gives me first-hand experience of how these products can spark creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills in children.”


A sense of purpose and fulfilment are important to Simran. She’s driven by a desire to make a positive impact on the world.

"I wanted to be part of a company that is doing something for the greater good. Our mission to inspire and develop the builders of tomorrow resonates deeply with me."


620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-766.JPG

"It's also incredibly rewarding to receive feedback from teachers and students about how much they love our products and how they've helped them achieve their goals.” 

Simran credits her team and our supportive culture for her success.

"My team values my opinions and suggestions, and they're always open to trying new things. This collaborative and supportive environment has allowed me to grow and develop both personally and professionally.”

**Joshua** brings a wealth of experience to his role as at LEGO® Education. His impressive track record is both wide and varied. He’s been a teacher. He’s coached teachers. Today, he draws on his background as our **Curriculum Specialist**.

"My passion has always been to make learning fun and impactful for students. Taking on this particular role at this particular organisation felt like a natural next step in my career. It allows me to combine my love for education with my belief in the power of play."

Joshua's role here is both multifaceted and dynamic.


620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-185.JPG

“I help demonstrate how LEGO Education lessons align with the learning standards across all 50 states in the US. I help to produce materials that support our sales team in conversations and relationship building with school districts. I also get to produce content to help our users learn with all LEGO Learning Systems solutions. I even get to collaborate with our Product Experience team in Denmark.”


"I get to wear my 'school hat' often. My experience in the classroom informs my work, allowing me to create resources that are truly relevant and useful for teachers and students alike. It’s something I get a lot of satisfaction from.”

Joshua is particularly proud of his ability to help teachers create engaging and playful learning experiences for their students.


620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-087.JPG

“Seeing our work in schools is incredibly meaningful. Having students and teachers share positive experiences with the products is very special. Sometimes one can feel removed from our mission being in an office. Being around when our products are in the hands of the curious minds they were designed for, well, that’s pretty special. The joy of learning right there before your eyes.”

Collaboration is at the heart of Joshua's work. He collaborates with colleagues across the globe, bringing together diverse perspectives and expertise to develop innovative solutions for complex challenges.

620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-257.JPG

"The collaborative environment at LEGO Education is very inspiring and enriching. I'm constantly learning from my colleagues. So I was genuinely quite humbled to get a "rising star" award with some of my colleagues at the LEGO Education US Sales Conference last winter. It always feels good to know you’ve contributed to the team in an impactful way. Even more so as a new hire.”

Joshua also embraces the playful spirit that’s ingrained in our culture.

"Play is not just a part of our work; it's part of our everyday. We're encouraged to think outside of the box, experiment with new ideas, and have fun along the way. This creative and supportive environment is what makes LEGO Education such a special place to work."

Empowering curious minds to explore is why we’re all here. But we also share a responsibility to make sure they can do so safely. **Dr Elizabeth** is our **Senior Corporate Counsel** for LEGO® GAME, (Gaming Activation and Metaverse Experiences). Her expertise in online child protection plays a vital role as we continue our own digital journey.

“Even though we’re very much a physical brick company, we need to be conscious of where children go. More and more children are playing and creating in the digital world. So we should be there too - creating digital playgrounds that are fun, inspiring and, above all, spaces where parents and caregivers can be confident their children are safe.” 


Untitled design (20).png

“The fundamental question my role begins with is: ‘How can we make our digital products and services compliant?’, but it doesn’t end there. Compliance is a bare minimum. We have a reputation to uphold and a duty of care to the curious minds we inspire. We have a responsibility to children of today and of the future to support their digital rights, safety and wellbeing. Everywhere we are - as a business, as a brand, as a base for creative play – if it involves children, if it involves digital, I want to be there to provide guidance.”

“Look at it this way: on the one hand, it’s about being across the multitude of laws as they evolve in jurisdictions from the UK and Europe to the US, China and Australia. On the other hand, I need to look at whether those laws meet our own rigorous standards, and I have to be able to explain to business units how we can still meet or even surpass their business objectives, while respecting children’s digital rights.”

It sounds like there’s a lot to keep in mind.


Untitled design (19).png

“Absolutely. This is uncharted territory, and it could be a minefield. But I prefer to see it as a whole new world of possibilities. Why should we limit ourselves by only seeing a problem? Let’s accentuate the positive and take on the challenge. Problems need solutions and this is a huge opportunity to be creative and craft innovative best practices for our employees, for children, for industry."

“The reality is that there are heaps of challenges with developing digital products and services today. We are starting to see claims of potential harm to children (eye strain, neck and back pain, obesity, problematic use of devices, for example), but we also know of the benefits of being savvy and digital users (connections, online support, digital citizenship, empowerment). So, the question becomes “How do we balance out creating a digital experience that is fun and playful and captures their attention, yet still encouraging our child users to take breaks and share with a trusted adult in order to mitigate these risks?”

But doesn’t it sometimes mean that ‘safety’ is the killjoy in the room? Doesn’t safety come at the expense of fun?


Untitled design (18).png

“Not at all. This is what I’m saying. It is absolutely possible to find that balance when we employ good practice by design. We just had a partnership with UNICEF, funded by the LEGO Foundation, where we were looking at what is digital well-being? what makes a child thrive when they're online? When they get off that tablet or computer and they play that video game, how do we make sure that this becomes a feel-good burst of empowerment and creativity?”

Elizabeth's commitment to child protection extends beyond her work at the LEGO Group. She serves on the boards of the NSPCC Child Safety Online Taskforce, Common Sense Media, and Digital Wellness Lab, which are leading child advocacy organizations in the UK and the US. She is an Assistant Professor lecturing on child rights, and regularly speaks at conferences and events to raise awareness of online safety issues affecting families.

“My ultimate goal is to create a digital world where children can play, learn, and explore safely and creatively. We will keep finding ways to do that as a business. It’s about bringing people together, using their expertise to hardwire safety into products and services as they evolve. It’s part of what makes what I do such a joy. I get to interact with so many different teams across the business - product design, marketing, influencer partnerships. I feel very lucky to be here – I get to work at the world’s most trusted brand to co-create a digital future for children and their families. What an awesome honour!”

It may be an unlucky number for some, but after 13 years at the LEGO Group, **Megan** still loves creating the fun games and experiences that curious minds enjoy on their screens.

“My career here has been a fantastic and wild journey. I first joined as a junior designer working on our digital experiences like Life of George or LEGO® Design byME. These were some of our very first digital/physical play experiences.”

“What's really fun about our job is that not all ideas make it, and then some find a new life later on. One idea for example was a Build Your Fish game which we decided wasn't the kind of app we wanted at the time. Then, when LEGO House opened, it turned out to be the perfect idea for a hands-on experience. Every good idea has its day!”

Untitled design (15).jpg

‘I've worn quite a few hats here during my time. As a senior digital art director, I led the redesign of our kids website to be ‘responsive’. This was an important change for us as the use of mobile devices by children was on the rise. Once we had our website up and running, I moved on to head up the design for LEGO Life to bring our web experience to the app stores. Even though physical play is still our goal for children, it was becoming increasingly important for us as a company to meet kids where they were spending their free time.”

Each role has taught me something new and exciting, and the best part is working with such talented and supportive colleagues. We really are a work family.

Does she have any ‘greatest hits’ she’d like to share with us:


JUST_IMAGINE_LIFESTYLE_183.jpg

“Working with Matthew Shifrin was a highlight. Bringing his dream of audio and braille building instructions to life is something I will always remember. Listening to him describe how building with LEGO bricks allowed him to explore the world in a way that film or books could not do - awe-inspiring." 

Enabling children and parents with visual impairments to build and play together is an experience that will stay with me forever. It was a truly humbling experience and made me proud to work for a company that can have such a meaningful impact on people.

Launching the Builder app was a huge moment too. There were so many complex elements to this, and new things to learn. What makes it stand out is that it was a product open to so many people. Builders of all ages and affinities. It was a great way to share the love of the brand and use technology to enhance something as iconic as our building instructions.”

Megan’s passion for what she does is clear. What keeps it going strong?


JUST_IMAGINE_LIFESTYLE_179.jpg

“I work in design for children for an iconic brand. How could I not be passionate about that. Plus, I get to spend my days experimenting, planning creative team events or just sparring and doing silly things with my fabulous team. I still get a buzz from going to user tests where we co-create design solutions with children. This is always energizing and a guaranteed gold mine of innovative ideas.”

“The business has grown and evolved over the years, but I’m constantly reminded of how incredible our culture is. Much of it, I think, is rooted in the small-town life we have in Billund and the owner-family distinct values. Even after all this time, every day I’m thankful. I feel so privileged to work for here. I still feel that same excitement every day.”

**Heather** is passionate about two things: LEGO® bricks and people. As one of our **store managers**, she loves the opportunity this gives her to helping her team to develop and our guests to discover the joy of building.

“When I was little, my dad had a huge red bin full of LEGO bricks, I used to beg him to let me play with them. I would sit for hours and build everything from cars to houses to castles. These days, I get to do this, as well as creating fun games for my team to help them explore their skills." 

"It's a challenging and rewarding job, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this amazing company. I love the fact I work for a brand that genuinely cares so much about its people and values as they support our growth, encourage us to be creative, and prioritise our well-being."


Untitled design (10).png

“I remember when I first joined, we were the only store in our state; it was an amazing experience to be a part of. Stocking the shelves and seeing the excitement on people's faces when they walked through the door was unforgettable. That’s why I look forward so much to new store openings. I get to hire a brand-new team, and we get to grow and learn new things together every day.”

Heather is clearly very much engaged in her role and invested in her team. But how about when it comes to customers. What does she enjoy most about this?

“Being a part of the toy world has always been a passion of mine. You’re a part of the special moments in people lives including birthdays, graduations, school awards, and everything else. Parents often use toys as an award for achievements. When they come into the store with their children, you get to be experience that with them.” 

Untitled design (11).png

“It’s what my team and I love about what we do. We’re super-supportive of one another and we share ideas about how we can make our brand come alive. Everyone has the support to create; everyone has the support to improve.”

When it comes to her own career path and work/life balance, Heather is equally enthusiastic:

"The support from the LEGO Group is endless. From supporting and investing in my development and work-life balance, to mental health, the LEGO Group sticks to their people promise! I am proud to work for a company that doesn't just say they care but shows it everyday."

With her background in urban education policy and experience working in classrooms, **Alysha** brings a unique perspective to her role as an **Account Manager**. It’s also proved to be the ideal way to explore a passion she shares with us: bringing equity and excellence to education. 

"My goal is to empower educators to be successful in the classroom. I work with them to develop plans, build confidence, and ensure that LEGO® Education sets are appropriate for their students' learning needs. I believe that every student deserves the opportunity to participate and succeed in STEM, regardless of their background or learning style."

Alysha's passion for education and social-emotional learning drives her work at LEGO Education.

620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-182.JPG

"I've seen first-hand how LEGO Education solutions can engage students and promote positive behaviour. I'm particularly proud of the fact that our products can reach students who may struggle in traditional learning environments."


A creative and consultative approach to her work, Alysha believes, is crucial to her success. This enables her to work closely with educators and understand their unique needs and challenges.

“Tailored solutions are what’s needed here. That’s why I'm always looking for new and innovative ways to use our products. When a customer asks a question I don't have an answer to, it often leads to new discoveries and even more creative applications. With this in mind, it helps that our products have a 'low floor, high ceiling,' so they can be used in a variety of ways to meet the needs of diverse learners."

Alysha is also passionate about professional development for educators. To this end, she leads workshops where teachers can learn how to effectively implement LEGO Education solutions in their classrooms.

620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-237.JPG

"I love seeing the excitement and enthusiasm that teachers bring to these workshops. It's a reminder of the power of collaboration and the importance of lifelong learning.

"My role is not simply about selling products; it's about building relationships and making a positive impact on the education community. I'm fortunate to work with amazing educators who are dedicated to their students and passionate about their work. That’s so inspiring. 


Alysha is also justifiably proud of her contributions to LEGO Education's US DEIB Council:
“Focusing on promoting diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging within the company and the broader education community is so important. I believe that every child deserves to see themselves reflected in the learning materials and experiences they encounter. We’re very much committed to creating inclusive and equitable learning environments for all."

Untitled design (7).png

“As someone who is passionate about creating an inclusive environment, I was thrilled to have been selected as a mentor for the Senior Leader Mentoring program in this year’s cohort. The decision to become a mentor was driven by my commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion as I believe that for any organization to thrive, it must embrace a wide array of perspectives and experiences. The Senior Leader Mentoring program at LEGO Group offers an innovative approach to fostering inclusivity by having senior leaders as mentees and employees from underrepresented groups as mentors. This opportunity means the world to me as it allows me to contribute to shaping a workplace where every voice is heard and valued. By sharing my experiences and insights, I aim to help senior leaders understand the challenges and opportunities faced by underrepresented groups, ultimately driving meaningful change.”

The journey that Alysha has taken at LEGO Education has had a positive impact on her too - both personally and professionally.

620-LEGOEducation-Lifestyle-497.JPG

“I feel that I’ve grown a great deal during my time here. Not least because I’ve developed a   deeper understanding of the power of playful learning. When I first started, my role was more transactional. Now, I’m able to be much more consultative. I'm able to leverage my expertise to help educators achieve their goals and create more engaging and impactful learning experiences for their students."

Alysha's passion for education and her commitment to making a difference are evident in everything she does.

"Our whole purpose is to inspire and develop the builders of tomorrow. We’re transforming the way children learn and grow with ever-more innovative and impactful solutions. This is something I'm proud to be a part of. We make learning fun, enjoyable, and memorable for students around the world - and I get to do that every day. Imagine that.”

Empowering educators, engaging learners: Meet Alysha 😎

**Charlotte Bell** is a **Brick Specialist and Sales Assistant** in one of our stores. From a young age, Charlotte was captivated by the endless possibilities that LEGO® bricks offered. Now she gets to share that excitement with others every day. 

"Ever since I was young, I wanted to work for the LEGO Group. It’s always been my dream. When I was walking in the mall and saw that a LEGO store was coming soon, I jumped at the opportunity.

For Charlotte, the LEGO store is not just a workplace; it's a playground where creativity and imagination come to life. She thrives on collaborating with her diverse team, each of whom brings their own unique personality and perspective to the table. 


Untitled design (17).jpg

"As people, we’re very different. But, as a team, we’re united in our love of LEGO bricks. So we all come together really well. It’s a lot of fun.”

The store's creative culture fuels Charlotte's passion for her work. She loves engaging with customers, helping them find the perfect set.

"I love to share my own creations or the sets I’ve built with others. Sometimes I can’t believe this is my actual job. Imagine that, being able to share your passion with others. Every. Single. Day. It’s a good feeling.”

One of Charlotte's most memorable projects was helping create the brick and pieces grab bags for the store. These enable our customers to add more bricks to their collection and enhance their build experience.


Untitled design (18).jpg

"My part was helping create them, so I was there from the start of it all. I think the fact our Pick and Build bags being so well-liked is one of my proudest moments.”

Beyond the duties of her role, Charlotte finds joy in the simple act of building with LEGO bricks. "I like to build little things that come from the Pick and Build wall and make them into our grab bags," she shares. For her, building is not just a task; it's a way to relax, de-stress, and express her creativity.

Untitled design (19).jpg

“My favourite LEGO set is the Brick Bank Creator set. I just love how its intricate details enable me to tell such rich stories. I guess it’s the same reason I love the modular series. It allows for endless customisation and building possibilities.

“Some of my favourite memories have been made at the LEGO store. I can remember visiting the Pick a Brick wall as a child and grabbing handfuls of pieces to create giant buildings at home. This one time, I built a movie theatre. It came out super-cool. I was so proud of it.”


Working at the LEGO store has exceeded Charlotte's expectations. The only change she’s really noticed is that she now helps with the Pick and Build wall more often than ever. 

“Being able to joke around with my peers and start conversations with customers about their builds is the perfect balance for me. My job is fun, relaxing, creative. What’s not to like about that?”

As she continues her journey with us, we’re sure Charlotte’s imagination and enjoyment of the play experience will continue to inspire both her colleagues and the countless customers she’ll get to meet.


Charlotte-Manchet

Meet Charlotte as she shares her ongoing journey through play.

Charlotte Bell is a Brick Specialist and Sales Assistant in one of our stores. From a young age, Charlotte was captivated by the endless possibilities that LEGO® bricks offered. Now she gets to share that excitement with others every day. 

“Working here is a dream come true” - Meet Charlotte ✨

Whether that involves creating better buying experiences for customers or developing more imaginative ways for colleagues to connect, she’s never afraid to start from the ground up.

“As an engineer, I really hoped that the LEGO Group would be open to experimenting. That’s what the products are all about, right? Exploring. Having fun. Being playful. Five years after joining, they’ve not let me down yet. It’s one of the things that I love about working here. I’ve been able to mould my roles to what they need to be so I can fulfil their objectives effectively. The freedom I’ve had to figure things out has been really liberating.”

**Nicole’s** passion for what she does is infectious. This is reflected in the investment she has made, be that in progressing her career or creating opportunities for colleagues to come together with imagination and creativity.

Untitled design (10).jpg

“I started as a senior infrastructure engineer. This involved looking after our e-commerce site. Making sure that it could scale to handle traffic and that everyone internally knew how everything should come together. One of my stand-out achievements was making sure that LEGO.com could withstand the onslaught of Black Friday without going down.”

“From here, I became a people manager. This meant that I was not only in charge of the people who were building the site but also building the culture for them to be able to progress and express themselves.”


Her commitment beyond her immediate role is something she’s also keen to highlight. It’s something she finds fulfilling and is a great example of our collaborative culture.

Untitled design (11).jpg

“I like to build the culture that I want to come to work in. This inspired me to start a couple of clubs. Some people joke it’s my way of getting the LEGO Group to pay for my hobbies - and that’s a definite upside. But it’s only one of them. They’re both mindfulness-focused. My crafting club includes people who knit and crochet. These are very meditative and allow you to process anything going on in your life. The other is a climbing club, so this involves a different kind of thinking that clears your mind and forces you to be present. I try to teach that to people who come to our workshops.”

“I guess both are great examples of play too. For me, it’s important to be present; to create things for people to explore and satisfy their curious minds. Having a blank canvas and a free mind to focus purely on solving one problem is good for us. It’s how we achieve better outcomes.”

In terms of her own career path, Nicole has an interesting philosophy. The fact that she’s been able to realise it here is proof that our people have endless paths to explore. 


Untitled design (12).jpg

“I tend not to focus on the future as it exists now. Every role I've taken, and every area I've worked in, did not exist when I started at the company. When I went to university, the degree that I eventually did hadn’t existed when I started out in education.” 

“My advice to people would be don’t look at your future based on the present. Be present. Yes, absolutely. But focus on what you find energising in the here and now. When you do this, you’re more engaged and become more expert at something. Who knows what you could do with that something or where you could take it. Or, for that matter, where it could take you.” 


For someone so obviously enthused by our products, it’s perhaps surprising they didn’t feature much in Nicole’s childhood:

Untitled design (13).jpg

“It’s only now that I’ve realised how much actually goes into the building experience of our sets. I’m really amazed by it. There are so many hidden features that are so cool. My engineering background tends to mean I really love the ones with moving parts. And I suppose that’s ultimately the key to everything we do. Appealing to a need or a love of doing something. Finding the thing that adds joy.” 

“The experience is everything. But we experience things in different ways and find pleasure in them for different reasons. The trick is creating ones that connect with curious minds and spark their imagination. This is our purpose. That’s why working here is so endlessly fascinating.”

Nicole Yip Thumbnail.png

Whether that involves creating better buying experiences for customers or developing more imaginative ways for colleagues to connect, she’s never afraid to start from the ground up.

Building means fun to Principal Software Engineer, Nicole 🎉

We asked colleagues in our LEGO® Japan office to talk about their careers, their favourite work memories and the things that make them proud to work here.

“My role is to bring you fun and creative moments!” says **Eiko Konishi**, who is **Marketing Director** at **LEGO Japan**.

Eiko (2560 × 1920 px).jpg

“I’ve been in the LEGO Group for 10 years and I get inspired by my colleagues and find something new in my work every day. I have the most fun at work when I’m chatting with colleagues and discussing new ideas. I never get bored!

“My most interesting project was bringing LEGO Masters to Japan. The program launch was a proud moment, but collaborating and delivering it as a team was the most valuable thing. 

“I’ve worked in both the sales and marketing teams. I’ve never seen a company that cares so much about wellbeing and work/life balance. All the People Leaders I’ve worked with here have supported me and helped me challenge myself and widen my experience of the job.

“My purpose is to reach out to as many children as possible and give them a chance to experience learning through play. It’s a wonderful job. Play can create space in your heart and give you new perspectives and ideas in your daily life. It’s so important for everyone to remember the value of play, especially when you have a busy life.”


**Millie Asami Miyashita** describes her job as **Digital Marketing Manager** as “finding ways to make digital life even more fun and inspiring!"

LEGO Japan Millie

“Every single project I work on is exciting - from composing a social media post to being a lead on a branding campaign. Everything we do is connected to our mission to inspire and develop the builders of tomorrow. I love it when I see a social media post inspired by our campaign message. It makes me happy that someone had a memorable play experience. I love seeing the great big smiles of consumers when they’re playing with LEGO bricks! 

"I have worked here for three years and one of the great things is the support for development. Every employee gets to decide their own career vision. We have lots of opportunities to discuss and learn about the development process, including eLearning courses, on-site workshops and dialogue sessions with the leadership team.

“The most important thing I learned is that the things we value at work – curiosity, bravery and focus – are encouraged and applied to every single task. When I first started, I felt a little awkward about receiving feedback, but I changed how I thought about it and realized that getting advice from different points of view only helps projects get even better.

“My role is communicating directly with our audience, so the spirit of play is super important. I’m always looking for ways to find playful communication rather than just giving people information. The digital platform is always evolving, so I need to stay engaged and keep trying new things. It’s fun and it’s helped me become a person who isn’t afraid of change.”

**Yuka Matsuzawa** knows that working for the LEGO Group is the dream for a lot of people. “My daughter's friend wants to be a LEGO employee because she loves LEGO sets."

LEGO Japan Yuka

“I’m the **Order Manager** and I’ve worked for the LEGO Group for five years.” she explains. “I really like the culture here; cooperation is essential. The last company I worked at was very conservative and it wasn't an environment where I could take on challenges. I looked at the LEGO Group and I really liked the way that people are given a chance and listened to if they speak up, so I applied here. In my last company the dress code was very strict, but in my team, we have fun dress codes for our team meetings like wearing animal prints or clothes that don’t fit you!

"What’s Yuka’s favourite work memory? “I really enjoyed my work as part of the project to improve the percentage of products in Amazon that were Retail Out of Stock (ROOS), which was affecting our customer pulse scores. My role was to investigate, analyse and come up with solutions. As a result, the number of products out of stock went down and customer satisfaction went up. 

“My job always gives me and my team new challenges. I believe in 'learning through play’. LEGO bricks aren’t just bricks, they are an unlimited play tool. When employees experience the fun of the product then we can let the rest of the world know how exciting it is. The Santa’s Helper initiative is wonderful. When I see big smiles from children and adults and get a big thank you from them, I really feel that's why I'm here.”

“The LEGO Group prioritizes children’s growth and that deeply resonates with me,” says **Hiroki Furukawa**. “I wanted to contribute to children’s futures.”

Hiroki  (2560 × 1920 px).jpg

“I’m a **Senior Key Account Manager** and role is to make sure that as many children as possible can find LEGO sets in stores! We work with retailers to create exciting sales spaces. We collaborate with partners to plan for the future to make sure that lots of retail companies can grow alongside the LEGO Group. We spread smiles across Japan, which has such a positive impact on my life! 

“I have realized the importance of collaboration beyond my direct responsibilities. I’ve been working on creating safe spaces for teamwork and growth. A playful workplace means prioritizing a creative approach and valuing failure. This creates an environment where employees can work joyfully and can infuse innovation and creativity into our daily work. 

“I have over 18 years of experience in the toy industry. Our team members come from diverse backgrounds — some have been with the LEGO Group for over 25 years, while others joined from entirely different industries. It’s amazing how these varied experiences come together in our current team, creating fascinating chemistry. 

“One of the most rewarding experiences for me was contributing to the growth of a team member. Witnessing their joy and tears when they were promoted was truly heartwarming. Working alongside them also helped me grow personally.”

Just Imagine with Travis 💭

A curious mind is a hungry mind. Just imagine indulging yours in a business that thrives on sharing knowledge and challenging one another to create the best outcomes. This is just part of the reason our Strategy Director, Travis Peoples, finds his wide-ranging role in Sustainability so fulfilling.

Just Imagine with Lauren 

Just imagine what you did every day could end up changing the world forever. This is how Lauren von Stackelberg (she/her) sees her role as our Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer. Change does not happen quickly or easily when the task is so big. But Lauren is under no illusions about this and she doesn’t do it alone. Collaborating, listening and learning with a curious, open mind are as much part of her journey as they are of everyone who works here.
