Learning is in our DNA

It began with our founder, Poul Due Jensen, who prioritised and firmly believed in the importance of knowledge and learning. And we still believe our key to success is enabling our employees to take responsibility for their own learning.

Today, you learn where and when you need it. You’ll have access to cutting-edge learning technology and a wide range of courses, digital learning opportunities and development programmes. Some take place at The Poul Due Jensen Academy, a specialised training facility at our Danish headquarters.

Learning and development opportunities

We want you and everyone at Grundfos to achieve their highest potential. Included below are some highlights from the global opportunities we offer all our employees.

Mentoring

Through our 12-month mentorship programme, we create meaningful connections that inspire learning, confidence and professional growth for both mentors and mentees.

Leadership development

We support leaders’ individual development through a range of programmes, tools and other learning opportunities, from foundational skills to transformative strategies, so they can embark on a journey tailored to their role.

“It’s super-engaged, I’m really impressed with the programme – real-world skills that you can immediately start using with your team.”
