“Together we are making life better for millions of people around the world”
Rafał Rybicki Head of Legal and Compliance Services
Rafał Rybicki, Head of Legal and Compliance Services in our Global Business Service (GBS) Center in Wroclaw, looks back on a bustling beginning with Boehringer Ingelheim – for him and the Center alike.
I joined Boehringer Ingelheim when the GBS Center in Wroclaw, Poland, was more a plan than reality. That was a key part of my decision to apply. I could have a real impact on the shape of the Center and create a Legal and Compliance Services department from scratch within the GBS Center Network. This made it a very attractive career opportunity.
Serving the whole company
Creating the department has meant taking part in designing processes, building a team, and then preparing and ramping-up our operational services. My teams are now providing legal and compliance services in different fields to internal stakeholders across the whole organization. These fields include trademark support, contracting, and internal investigations.
Positive attitude and real support
What makes our organizational culture really stand out from other multinational corporations is the positive attitude of the people and the real - not just declared - support we get from the management. We think of ourselves as a real, big Boehringer Ingelheim family. We genuinely want to contribute to our common goals. I really enjoy coming to the office and being with the other people here.
What comes next?
Legal and compliance services is one of the most dynamically developing trends in the business services area globally. The opportunity not only to be a part of that, but actively to create, develop and deliver this service within Boehringer Ingelheim excites me.
The best thing about working at Boehringer Ingelheim is…
Two things! First, the fact that, together, we are contributing to a real improvement in the quality of life for millions of people around the world. Second, there’s a unique atmosphere at this company. It’s one of the biggest in the industry, but it has managed to preserve its identity and values as a family-run company.
