Life Behind the Bricks

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.

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.

Just Imagine being part of something bigger in your life, where you get to inspire and develop the builders of tomorrow - one brick at a time. That’s what working here has felt like to me - and that feels pretty good.

Just imagine celebrating 90 years of play. Then imagine setting your mind to evolve play for the next generation. How we push the boundaries of what we do next with LEGO® bricks. This is the reality for Senior Interaction Designer, Micol Galeotti. It’s her job to take us forward and explore those possibilities. We think it’s fair to say she enjoys what she does.

‘Staring out the window, cloud gazing, spacing-out all, these seem to have negative connotations, but in my experience, this is where real creative development happens’. This is what Jake Blais has to say about imagination. Just imagine… it’s not all you have to do. But there is no better place to start.

Just imagine your job was to engage some of the most curious and demanding minds. Then imagine how it must feel to get the approval of their smile. Pride. This is what Ruben Romijnders Hagensen feels. Pride at having created a play experience that engages our customers and gives them a feeling of joy and achievement.

This event is all about inviting you to take a look behind the bricks of the work our Munich Sales, Marketing & Operations team do here at the LEGO Group. We are not only looking to lift the lid on all things sales and marketing but we want to pique your interest in a career here in the Munich office and become part of our awesome LEGO® team.

Our workplaces are great for collaborating, creating, learning together and socialising. It’s where we do our best work. But there are times when nothing beats the convenience of home, especially when fully supported by the business. For most of us, 3 days in the office and 2 at home feels about right combining time with the team - working efficiently and effectively together – combined with time to focus at home.

Whether you’re working remotely because of the pandemic, tentatively returning to the office or are just starting out at the LEGO Group, we’re big on making your transition as easy, and your welcome as warm as possible. We have 4 regional Hubs across the world in Shanghai, Singapore, Enfield CT (USA) and London and our Hub Hosts are at the centre of #HubLife, creating that warm welcome and being on hand to support LEGO® colleagues virtually and in person. We caught up with some of our London Hub Host team to find out about what they do, how they do it, and how it helps to energise our themselves and their colleagues.
