WIR SIND BRITA. A global Family

At BRITA, we are more than colleagues – we are a community that strengthens and inspires each other. The BRITA family stands for trust, solidarity and genuine passion for what we do.

For over 50 years, we have been developing solutions that optimise drinking water and make everyday life more sustainable. What began as a family business ‘made in Germany’ is now a global market leader – with over 2,300 colleagues in almost 70 countries.

 

At BRITA we are...

a family company
In 1966, Heinz Hankammer laid the foundation for BRITA – with handmade filter cartridges in his own garden. Today, under Markus Hankammer, we are continuing to run the company as the international market leader in drinking water optimisation in its second generation. As a family business, we know that energy, commitment and creativity are valuable human resources – and at BRITA, they are valued and encouraged.

Experts in water optimisation and individualisation 
We create the best possible drinking water experience for everyone – individually, flexibly and wherever water is needed. Whether from a carafe or straight from the tap, at home, in the office or in your favourite café: filtered, chilled or sparkling – with BRITA, water is exactly how you need it.

Talent developers
At BRITA, your development is our focus – both personally and professionally. We rely on modern learning formats and targeted support that really gets you ahead:

  • Individual development through practical training and digital learning opportunities
  • Targeted talent development with our international leadership programme BOLD ("BRITA Opportunities for Leadership             Development")
  • Career paths with future – over 60 % of our managers come within our own ranks

We believe in the potential of our employees – and create spaces where it can flourish.

  • Excellent employer culture

    Top Company 2026 – awarded by kununu
    For the third time in a row, BRITA has been named a Top Company by kununu – based on independent reviews from our employees.

    This award confirms what is important to us: a corporate culture that puts people first. We are proud to be part of a global family that combines professional growth and personal satisfaction.

  • Excellent employer culture

    We are a Great Place to Work®
    BRITA has been successfully certified as a Great Place to Work® for its locations in Germany and Switzerland. The award is based on anonymous surveys on topics such as trust, diversity, leadership and cooperation.

    85% of our colleagues confirm that BRITA is a very good place to work. The strong identification with the company is particularly evident – a sign of our lived culture and high level of satisfaction within the team.

Passionately sustainable  
We take responsibility – for our actions and for the environment. We actively drive change with recycling programmes, projects such as Balance the Impact to reduce CO₂ emissions, and the use of renewable energies. And sometimes it's the little things that make a big difference: for example, our 300,000 bees at our Taunusstein site.

Our partnership with Whale & Dolphin Conservation (WDC) is also a project close to our hearts. With the ‘Less plastic is more sea’ campaign, we are taking a stand against ocean pollution.

Our culture – family-oriented, international, future-focused

With us, you are part of a global family – medium-sized in character, internationally networked. Our culture thrives on openness, team spirit and responsibility.
