Cheese & Julina
Interview with Julina - Store employee in Salzburg
From cheese lover to ambassador in the shop
Julina (24) works in our shop in Salzburg, where she studies at university. She enthusiastically talks about how her love of cheese, hospitality and people come together in her side job at Henri Willig Cheese & More.
"I had previously worked as a cheese sommelier and salesperson at a local market. When I saw this vacancy on Indeed, I thought: this fits me exactly. I know the product, love customer contact and like that it's a family business with short lines of communication."
Team spirit above all
What Julina appreciates most? The close-knit team:
"There are only four of us, but it feels like a mini family. Everyone helps each other, even outside work. There is no gossip culture and the atmosphere is always open."
Why choose Henri Willig?
Julina sums it up effortlessly:
- You are valued on your experience and the salary is better than at most side jobs in Salzburg
- You receive the 13th and 14th salary, as is usual in Austria.
- Flexible working hours, tailored to your studies.
- A fresh shop in summer and a warm place in winter ("You never have to sweat in summer - that's SO nice!").
"I now work 30 hours a week, and thanks to a new colleague, we can cover the summer well. Our schedule is super tight now."
Studying and working
Julina studies Culture, Participation & Communication. In her free time, she enjoys swimming in the lakes around Salzburg, spending time with her family (who now also live in Salzburg) and building her future together with her boyfriend - a professional American football player.
"The work at Henri Willig fits perfectly with my studies and stage of life. And honestly? I don't know yet what I will do later, so this is just right for now."
