Meet Adriana Barta, Production Planning and Reporting Coordinator at Yazaki Romania Adriana, could you share some details about your career at Yazaki? I started my journey 16 years ago as an Operator. In less than two years, I was promoted to the Production Trainer position. In 2011, after gaining experience especially from the constant exchanges with my colleagues, I became a Production Line Leader. More responsibility, more challenges and working with more people followed in 2015 with my new position as Production Coordinator. Together, we achieved great results! My enthusiasm in trying new things, working more efficiently and organizational topics remained. And I still wanted to be close to the production team. So, in 2002 I advanced to my current position of Production Planning & Reporting Coordinator. What makes working at Yazaki special to you? For me, Yazaki is about ‘us’, meaning all my colleagues, beginning with people at the local production lines to plant managers, colleagues from factories abroad and from Japan. From my experience, we are all treated equally, act ‘One for all, all for one’ in both good and hard times. What does the Yazaki Spirit mean to you in your daily working life? To me, the Yazaki Spirit embodies the passion with which we make things happen. It stands for commitment, loyalty and respect. I enjoy seeing that it truly exists in our work and our day-to-day activities. #Yazaki #YazakiEMEA #AutomotiveIndustry #Team
