How are the working hours arranged - even on weekends?
As a wellness hotel, we operate on a shift system – depending on the department. At the same time, we ensure predictable workflows and reliable schedules. We take important personal appointments into account as much as possible in our planning.
Where is it located DIEDRICH and how is the journey to work?
We are located in Hallenberg the Sauerland (near Winterberg) – quiet and close to nature. Many of our employees come from the surrounding area, for example from Winterberg, Medebach or Frankenberg. Free parking is available right outside the house.
Are there staff rooms or assistance with finding an apartment?
Depending on availability, staff rooms can be used – for example, for the start. If you are new to the region, we are also happy to help with orientation on site and provide tips on finding an apartment.
How does a normal workday feel at DIEDRICH an?
Structured, calm and human. Hotel operations are lively – but at us there are no large events or constant crowds. Clear procedures, manageable structures and respectful interaction are intended to ensure that guests leave in the evening with a good feeling.
How do people get along with DIEDRICH each other?
At eye level. We value speaking with one another – not above one another. Concerns are taken seriously, doors are open, and respect is not just a buzzword here; it’s a way of life. Those who are friendly, reliable, and open will quickly find their place with us.
Who is this DIEDRICH particularly well suited for – and who is it not really suitable for?
This DIEDRICH suits people who value peace and quiet, quality and genuine interaction. Those who appreciate clear procedures, work reliably and enjoy being part of a manageable team will usually feel at home with us. Our home is less suitable for people who seek constant action, loud events or constantly changing large-scale events.
Are there opportunities for development – even without a traditional career path?
Yes. Not everyone wants to "build a career" in the traditional sense. For us, the goal is to work safely, to improve, and to take on responsibility at one's own pace. Those who want to develop further are supported – without pressure, but with perspective.
Can I also apply on my own initiative?
We would be very happy to hear from you. If you feel that our approach suits you, we are always happy to receive a motivated application – even if there are currently no suitable positions available.
