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."

Behind every playful campaign, TV ad, and social media post is a team of creative minds. **Mel** is one of them. As an **Associate Producer**, she’s able to indulge her passion for storytelling in all kinds of ways.

“I support the marketing teams in producing TV ads and social media videos.” When asked to explain her role in simpler terms, she laughs and adds: 

“Working at the LEGO Group is all about collaboration. A longside a team of super-talented creatives from our in-house agency, we work with an external production company to bring our ideas to life. I’m sort of the middleman, managing both ends and making sure we make a video that everyone’s happy with.”

With its mix of project management and creative teamwork, Mel’s role keeps her on her toes. When she joined us, she had little experience in production. 


Untitled design (15).png

“There are a lot of moving parts and people, and communication is key, so that’s where I come in. We make it come together.” 

“I started out back in 2021 as an intern during peak COVID. I’d come via an advertising agency programme, and it was my first job. I didn’t really have any real impressions about the business, aside from it being an amazing toy company. But I found my feet without any trouble and things have moved on quickly since then. Within six months, I’d become an Associate Producer.”


“My role has developed a lot. I went from supporting small social media posts to managing my first TV commercial on my own. It’s been a big leap.”

Today, Mel says she feels lucky to be here and the satisfaction she gets from her role is clear: 

“My role allows me to be super creative. Every project is about showcasing play through our products in a different way to children. For a recent commercial, we built all our props out of cardboard and used real minifigures instead of animation. It was good just to get crafting again.”


Untitled design (16).png

“I’ve worked on stuff I’m really proud of too. About two years ago, we created a video for International Day of the Girl with an all-female crew. That’s pretty unheard of in the film industry. It was great to see women in stereotypically male roles like lighting and camera. That felt special.”

Diversity and Inclusion is something that Mel takes to heart.

“I guess it’s become a common theme. I’m involved with the People of Colour Employee Advocacy Group, which is great. We share a real sense of community. It’s a space where people are really open to come up with any problems they’ve had and ask for advice or just share experiences. Everyone listens and I get a lot from it.”


Untitled design (17).png

"A huge positive is the people I've met along the way. For example, Elizabeth, she’s a lawyer and just super inspiring - she’s got like ten degrees and knows various languages. She encourages me to persevere and try out things that I might not be good at, just to give it a go.”

“And that’s basically what play’s all about. I'm currently working on a super fun project where we are collaborating with artists from so many places. I’m learning all the time.”


But it’s children who are Mel’s biggest teachers.

“They are just a constant source of inspiration. When you ask children how they’d sell a product, they come up with the wackiest storylines. It’s a reminder to try anything and think big.”

You know those quirky ads you love to watch on YouTube? Who do you think makes them? How and Why? Over to you, **Beau**. 

“I never grew up with LEGO® bricks. This was something I learned to love when I was an adult watching the LEGO movie. I’m glad that I did. Now I understand why grown adults can justify to the their partners owning our Millenium Falcon. It’s because it’s just mind-blowingly cool.”

It’s this kind of passion that Beau brings to his work here.

“I guess I’m just really lucky. I get to make stuff that (hopefully) makes folks smile. Our goal is pretty simple: to get you people as excited about LEGO products as we are! It’s about always trying to tap into that inner child, that sense of wonder and playfulness that makes the LEGO experience so special."

Untitled design (12).png

“I’m still a kid at heart. So that helps. I’ve spent longer here than at any other place in my career. And the opportunity just landed in my lap. Since then, I’ve climbed the ranks from brand strategist to brand strategy director.”

Being able to be himself is something that Beau sets a lot of store by. Why is this, we ask, and how does it inspire him?

“I think it’s rare for a large organisation to tell you to bring your whole self to work - and actually mean it. Not only that, but actively encourage it too. It’s a smart move really. It all ties into the spirit of play." 


71a55c71-20f2-4d8f-b9b5-b1f692fa57b9-0.jpg

"We all need more play in our lives. If we don’t have it, we just end up becoming boring, cynical adults. We actually get to have a work-life balance too. It's all about keeping that spark of play alive, both in our work and in our lives."

“Besides, to come up with ideas you want to play with yourself, you have to actually be playful yourself. This is when you do the stuff you’re most proud of.”


Can he share some of these highlights with us?

“Oh sure. Anything that helps curious minds discover our amazing products is an achievement, I think."

“One of my proudest moments was launching LEGO VIDIYO. In case you’re not familiar, it’s a product that enables children to create their own music videos and dance clips using a range of LEGO sets. There’s an app that goes with it too. So it’s a great way to explore creativity."


d2da7bf3-e8cf-4ec3-b0aa-3ff07cda1b1b-0.jpg

“Coming up with the strategy and bringing the campaign to life was a real thrill. I also came up with the initial foundation for the LEGO Space campaign. It was pretty special to see that blossom."

With all this said, we imagine it must be hard for Beau to pin down what he likes best about being here.

c20a6eda-0dd1-43ae-9136-c893d7005f85-0.jpg

“Listen, my job is awesome. Working here is a blast. We have an amazing team, a playful atmosphere, and the freedom to be ourselves. Plus, we get to play with toys all day. Who wouldn’t love that."

“But most of all, listening to children is just so refreshing. I learn from my colleagues too, here in the LEGO Agency, of course. With young, curious minds, it’s different somehow. They teach me something new every single time. Finding the energy to keep pace with their thinking keeps me on my toes. That’s why I’m here.”

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 😎

**Fernanda's** journey began with a childhood love for LEGO® bricks. Today, she brings this passion to her work creating a whole new world of play experiences. 

“When I moved to Denmark with my family, I dreamt of working at the LEGO Group. While it seemed like a long shot given my background in computer science, when I applied, I got the job! Ever since, I've been immersed in this amazing world where creativity and technology intersect.

“My job is all about teaching computers to learn, much like kids learn through play. I create algorithms that help computers recognise patterns and make predictions based on data. This technology might sound complex, but you interact with it every day. It's how your phone recognises your face or how online stores recommend products you might like.” 

Fernanda uses this same technology in her work every day. Can she tell us more about what this involves?  


Fernanda_Andalo_01.jpg

“I've helped launch products where we used Machine Learning and Augmented Reality to bring LEGO creations to life. Right now, I'm working on some exciting new projects that will create even more imaginative and interactive play experiences.

“My role has evolved over time, and thanks to the support of my colleagues and leaders, I've been able to focus on projects that truly ignite my passion. One of the most rewarding aspects of my job is the freedom I have to propose new ideas and experiment with different approaches. It's incredibly exciting to see those ideas come to life in products that kids and families around the world enjoy.”

In this new and ever-evolving area of technology, Fernanda is very clear about how to make the most of it: 

JUST_IMAGINE_LIFESTYLE_059.jpg

“The secret ingredient to our success lies in maintaining a playful mindset. We approach our work with curiosity, creativity, and a whole lot of fun. By actively playing with and testing our own products, we gain valuable insights that help us understand what resonates with kids.

“Of course, we also learn a great deal by observing how kids play. Their boundless imagination and creativity are a constant source of inspiration for us. By understanding their play patterns and preferences, we can create experiences that spark their curiosity and keep them engaged.” 

One of the things Fernanda enjoys most about her role is the opportunity to tackle new technical challenges: 

JUST_IMAGINE_LIFESTYLE_058.jpg

“Every problem is an opportunity to learn and grow, both as an engineer and as a creator. Sometimes, these challenges lead to breakthroughs that wouldn't have been possible without a playful, open-minded approach.” 


“The most fulfilling moments come when I see the impact of our work firsthand. When a child's face lights up with joy as they interact with a LEGO creation that I helped bring to life, it reminds me why I love what I do.

“If you're passionate about technology and play, and you're not afraid to experiment and explore new ideas, this is such an exciting place to be right now. The possibilities are endless.”

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.”

What’s the most important piece of advice that you’d give to someone about life at the LEGO Group? 🤔
We asked colleagues in the LEGO® Japan office to talk about their careers, their favorite work memories and the things that make them proud to work here.

Our LEGO® Japan colleagues open up about life at the LEGO Group

LEGO® Japan Team Members open up…

As a student, Software Engineer, Bianca, was inspired by her experience of working with the LEGO Group. It became her dream to enable curious minds to feel how she had felt. She joined us at LEGO Education in April 2021. This is her story.

“I first came to Denmark in 2015. I moved here from Romania to study at VIA, a university in Horsens. This is where I had my first experience of programming. With the help of an NXT robot, I learned how to follow a moving object. That was the moment I realised how big of an impact LEGO sets can have in students’ lives. Perhaps more importantly, it showed me how easy it is to learn complex topics while having a lot of fun.”

Since then, she has been driven to contribute as much as she could to the next generation of products. Why? Quite simply because she wanted to share with children the sense of wonder she had while learning how to programme a robot. 

LE_CAMPUS_LIFESTYLE_023.jpg

“I'm super proud to say that my dream came true. I got accepted as a Junior Software Engineer at LEGO Education and I’ve not looked back since. To begin with, I was working on the development of Spike Prime and Spike Essential - key learning tools in the area of Robotics and STEM.  

“This is what gets me out of bed every morning: the fact I can impact children's lives in a positive way with projects I've helped to develop. It also helps that I’m part of a superhero team with developers, designers, content creators, and others. Each of us brings our own unique powers to create something truly awesome. Ultimately, we’re helping children learn and making teachers’ jobs become a bit easier.” 

So what does this involve?

“I use programming languages that bring applications and websites to life. Technology changes so quickly. Which is great! But it also introduces new problems that we may have not foreseen. It’s my job to solve them and ensure that the curious minds we inspire have a positive digital experience. This means creating trouble-free, stress-free applications that take the pressure off teachers. So, they can do what they do best - teach, engage, inspire.”

Creativity is a key part of what we do as a business. But how does Bianca bring this to her work?

LE_CAMPUS_LIFESTYLE_010.jpg

“Well, by embracing the iterative nature of software development. This allows me to improve my code incrementally which, in turn, drives innovation in what I do. Creativity comes through in helping with planning team events too - that and coming up with playful missions and activities. These inspire the team and promote trust while building better relationships. Team culture plays an important role in being a productive team!”

“It’s also there in play. Experimenting with different coding methods, libraries and tools helps me to think more creatively. I learn new skills all the time and find innovative solutions to problems. This keeps me motivated and enhances my problem-solving skills, contributing to my success in delivering effective solutions.”

Does she ever get to see her work in action and how does this make her feel?

“Oh yes, I get to visit schools and engage with both children and teachers. They learn together through playful exploration and LEGO Education products are at the heart of this. For me, it's about empowering students to explore and think critically. This is how we solve problems in fun and engaging ways. It helps prepare students for life and the challenges they may face. - what could be better than that.

“I'm proud that my work brings so much joy to the learning experience - what could be better than that.”

As a student, Software Engineer, Bianca, was inspired by her experience of working with the LEGO Group. It became her dream to enable curious minds to feel how she had felt. She joined us at LEGO Education in April 2021. This is her story.

“When there are endless possibilities, how can you not feel inspired”

As a student, Software Engineer, Bianca, was inspired by her experience of working with the LEGO Group. This is her story.

Meet Software Engineer, Bianca.

Seven women. Seven engineers. Each with their own perspective. Each with shared experiences. Meet **Christine**, **Karina**, **Daphne**, **Katerine**, **Renate**, **Frederikke** and **Adrienne** as they share their stories to celebrate International Women in Engineering Day.

**Christine** from our site in Kladno, Czech Republic, has applied her mechanical engineering background to problem solving for over a decade. She’s worked in several countries and is a strong advocate for respect for women in the workplace. 

Untitled design (7).jpg

“Personally, I wish women's work was more normalized, and not celebrated like something extraordinary. Like every time I hear "wow, for a woman, that's a great achievement" and I just feel like "no, this is an achievement’. It’s genderless. I don't need to be reminded that I’m a woman.”

"One of the great things about engineering for me is that you get to see your work out there in the real world. Particularly so as a mechanical engineer - from hospital beds to swimming pool filters. But seeing LEGO sets I’ve helped design gives me a special feeling. Knowing that I’ve helped have an impact on curious minds makes my hours sitting by the computer designing things so real and so tangible. I love it."

**Karina's** journey from sales assistant to industrial design engineer shows the transformative possibilities of an engineering education. A Mechanical Engineer in Billund, she emphasises the importance of teamwork and collaboration in her role which focuses on refining and creating new LEGO® elements. She highlights the supportive and safe environment at the LEGO Group, where diversity is valued, and everyone's opinions are heard.

women in engineering - Karina.jpg

“Ultimately, it shouldn’t really matter which gender you are. This is a great place to work. Full stop. As a woman in particular I feel super safe and very comfortable here. We should continue trying to attract more women into engineering because there are so many of us who are great at what we do. Not just because we’re female, but because we collaborate and bring our own perspective."

"My Brickmate, **Anne**, has been a huge inspiration to me. She has taught me a great deal and I know I will continue to learn from curious minds as they join.”


**Daphne**, a Senior Additive Manufacturing Engineer, delves into the exciting world of 3D printing. She works on improving processes for printing equipment and LEGO bricks, pushing the boundaries of this relatively new technology. Her experience highlights the challenges and rewards of working on cutting-edge projects that break new ground. She sees the culture here as inclusive and supportive.

“Don't believe that you need to fit a certain mold taken seriously as an engineer. That's simply not true. Consider all the time you spend worrying about being taken seriously or fitting in. Replace that with time spent playing, and you'll understand what it's like to be a female engineer at the LEGO Group. Engineering is fundamentally about exploring and engaging with the world around us and transforming it for the better—for everyone."

At our Kladno site, **Katerina**, is an Equipment Manager. She is responsible for the continuous operation of our site machines. This means collaborating with technicians and production planners to troubleshoot problems as they arise.

“Engineering can still be a bit of a ‘man’s world’. I’m not sure why other than this has always been the case. But, given that this is a field that is driven by finding better solutions, it’s a very natural place for women to be. In general, I feel no restrictions or discrimination coming from the fact I’m a woman. I hope more will join us soon. We are making an impact. We can make a bigger one.” 

**Renáta** believes “the engineer's role is to make life easier and better with new products and new technologies”. As one of our Process Engineers, she likes to look at problems in a structured way.

"I love to challenge myself and I’m always look for a new way forward. A new technology, a daily problem is an opportunity to learn something new. There is so much opportunity to do so as science improves continuously. We just need people who make the connection between the need and the solution. We’re a very open-minded workplace. We appreciate the knowledge our people bring. This means there are plenty of possibilities to improve yourself and expand the scope of your interest." 


“Engineering has transformed my approach to life”, **Frederikke** tells us. She’s an Operational Technology Transformation Manager at the LEGO Group in Billund. “We live in an environment where changes happens all around the world every second, we stumble into challenges every day, but I know based on my engineering background that there is always a solution out there, it is just a matter of finding it and solving it together with other bright minds.

"I feel that the LEGO Group empowers women. There is a high focus on diversity and inclusion. Since joining, I’ve been inspired by seeing female leaders in engineering. This is far from the case elsewhere. Change is happening. It’s visible. This means there is more to come.”

**Adrienn** works as an Environmental Health & Safety Engineer in Nyíregyháza, Hungary. It’s her role to create a safe place to work. She does so by conducting risk assessments, implementing safety protocols, ensuring compliance with regulations, providing training and education, monitoring workplace conditions, and promoting a culture of safety awareness.

"One thing is for sure, it's a great feeling to have my work as a woman recognised, my competence is not questioned, and my insights and ideas are always welcome. I’m proud of all women I can work with. They are all super-strong and inspiring.” 

“For me, this is a great place for us to thrive in engineering. The culture here is inclusive. OK, there is always further to go but we have gender diversity initiatives, equal opportunities, flexibility for work-life balance, supportive networks, and a commitment to innovation. That’s not a bad foundation on which to build, right?”

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.
