Meet Zaheer Fazal, an Automation and Mechatronics Engineer from Pakistan, now working as a Sales Manager in Konecranes Saudi Arabia. After starting his journey in the Industrial Equipment Business Area, Zaheer made the shift to the Service Sales team, a move that re-energized him. “My favorite memory is when I moved from the Equipment department to the Service Sales team. That transition gave me new motivation and made me even more excited to grow with Konecranes,” he shares.
Now based in Saudi Arabia, Zaheer’s workdays are anything but routine. He supports customers, coordinates service needs, and collaborates closely with his team to keep everything running smoothly. “My day-to-day involves supporting customers, coordinating service needs, and working closely with the team to ensure everything runs smoothly. Every day is different, which keeps the role challenging and motivating.”
One of the key drivers behind Zaheer’s professional growth has been the support of experienced colleagues and the opportunity to learn by doing. “I’ve grown professionally by expanding my technical knowledge and gaining hands-on experience with Konecranes. Working with experienced colleagues has pushed me to improve my problem-solving skills and take on more responsibility with confidence.”
What he values most about working at Konecranes is clear: a culture that puts safety and people first. “It provides a safe working environment to all employees,” he says. And when it comes to his team? “They are very good team players.”
Zaheer encourages new employees to approach the role with curiosity and care. “My advice is to be open to learning, Konecranes has a lot of knowledge, and you’ll grow quickly by asking questions and observing experienced colleagues. Take safety seriously, get familiar with the procedures, and don’t rush. The team is very supportive, so don’t hesitate to reach out when you need help.” For Zaheer, being part of Konecranes means being part of something meaningful. “Konecranes is a company that truly supports growth and teamwork, and I’m proud to be part of it. The people, culture, and opportunities here make every day meaningful.”
