    To our open positions

    Welcome to the AL-KO Vehicle Technology Group

    Grounded in tradition, focused on the future

    Since Alois Kober founded our company in 1931 in Germany, much has changed. What started as a small business has grown into an internationally established group of companies. Today, around 3,000 colleagues at over 40 locations worldwide work together to rethink mobility.

    As a business unit of DexKo Global, we develop and manufacture high-quality chassis and suspension components as well as accessories for trailers, recreational vehicles and commercial vehicles, as well as construction and agricultural vehicles. We combine technical expertise with the ambition to continually advance functionality, comfort and driving safety.

    What has remained throughout all this growth? Our understanding that good ideas are generated where people work together, take responsibility, and contribute their strengths. This is exactly what we want to provide the right conditions for.
