Our culture
Doing our best is at the very heart of our culture and informs everything we do. For this to happen, we have to feel at home, have scope for development and enjoy our work. This comes down to our family-like feel, which we have been able to maintain despite the growth of the company.

How we communicate
At Livit everyone – from apprentices to the CEO – uses the informal ‘du’ address with each other, even during the application process. This is a sign of our friendly culture, modern approach and open-minded leadership style.
Direct but respectful communication is also important here. Exchanging ideas constructively, as partners, allows us to harness our full potential and do the best we possibly can for our customers.
«Livit has an amazing team spirit; we simply have great people here. Even during the recruitment process, Livit is committed to ensuring that the job is a good fit on a personal level and within the team. There’s a relaxed atmosphere across all teams and levels in the company. The policy of using the informal ‘du’ address certainly contributes to that.»
