Elke Erhardt – Project Manager

Sustainability is very important to me personally. I am happy to be part of a company whose projects support and promote sustainable thinking. In my free time, I enjoy spending time in the forest. That's why I'm particularly proud of the Tree App, which supports future-oriented forestry. Using technology to make sustainable living easier and accessible to everyone is something I feel very strongly about.

This award recognises companies and organisations that actively promote climate-friendly and sustainable mobility, particularly through environmentally friendly design of operational mobility such as commuting and business travel.

What project are you currently working on that you're particularly excited about?

We have completely rebuilt geOps' oldest project, which has been in use for over ten years and which I have been involved with for quite some time. Enabling almost 20 customers to switch to the latest technology is super exciting. The work is extremely varied. It covers everything from layout and user experience to customer communication, technical implementation, data management, and logic.

What makes working at geOps special for you?

I identify with the company's goals and really appreciate the modern working environment with a flexible workplace. It's easy to balance work and private life according to your own needs. Added to this is the great team atmosphere with super-friendly colleagues. I particularly like the fact that you can actively shape the way we work together and that your own ideas are welcome.
