If you're applying: Check the stated requirements in each posting first. The Brno-Líšeň production roles require shift work and physical work, and their postings are written in Czech. The Brno buyer role lists Angličtina, the DACH role needs native-level German, and the Praha performance role needs Advanced English.
If you're selling or recruiting: Start with the supply chain and engineering builds, which have the most roles and the clearest postings: forecasting and automated ordering, plus an e-commerce re-architecture. Production expansion in Brno-Líšeň and new retail stores in Praha and Bratislava are the next angles. Brno and Praha are the main hiring hubs.
