Continental Automotive Products SRL (Continental Tires Romania)

Timisoara Tires Management

As the automotive industry undergoes rapid transformation and increasing complexity, Continental Tires Timișoara recognized the need to cultivate a strong internal pipeline of future leaders—individuals with deep knowledge of our plant operations, and the skills to drive innovation, cross-functional collaboration, and change.

To meet this need, we launched the Timișoara Tires Management (TTM) program—a development initiative focused on identifying and preparing internal talent for leadership roles.

Key highlights of the program are cross-divisional participation; intrapreneurship training: Delivered by a respected Romanian business mentor, this component helped participants strengthen business acumen, lead real projects, and deliver measurable results; hands-on learning: All training was linked to actual business challenges within the plant.

Impact: improved talent retention and motivation; increased team productivity and faster decision-making; stronger internal leadership pipeline ready for future challenges.

SOF PRODUCTION STANIJA

From the Heart of the Apuseni to Cars Around the World

SOF PRODUCTION STANIJA has always placed people at the heart of its growth. By opening factories in disadvantaged areas such as Brad, Stanija and Abrud, we created opportunities where they were most needed, offering stable jobs to communities across the Apuseni Mountains. At our peak, we employed nearly 500 people, with a constant average of 300 before the pandemic. To secure access to work, we organized dedicated transport routes and adapted flexible solutions, including personnel leasing, to meet urgent workforce needs. In this way, we strengthened our projects while preventing depopulation and supporting regional development
