We are the NBS

My name is Jörg Nickel. I am the owner, patron and live the company for more than 25 years.

It's the variety that makes it. On the one hand, it's the varied tasks and challenges that keep me busy in the office every day. The many different activities and a great team make my working day very exciting. On the other hand, I enjoy my private life as a mother, grandmother and housewife. The daily exercise in nature with our dog is a welcome balance for me. In addition, my extended family keeps me on my toes and I never get bored. Cooking, baking, reading but also hiking or skiing are among my favourite pastimes.

For me, not all waste is the same - waste is a raw material that we need to reuse as efficiently as possible in today's world and society. As a system specialist for extraction and disposal systems, I love creating individual solutions for NBS and thus for our customers every day. I find my private balance with my family, sports and motorcycling.

As a technician, I got to know the company NBS AG about 18 years ago. In the 5 years I was allowed to carry out various assemblies and maintenance. Now I am back with 11 years of sales experience and would like to support the sales team. I am looking forward to this exciting task.

In my free time, my family comes first. We often like to relax from everyday life in our beautiful allotment garden, among other things with a barbecue, a good glass of wine or a beer. Sports, gardening and my turtles are among my hobbies. In the cold season you can find me in the tinkering room of the float builders, where we build together during countless hours of work and enjoyment for the Guggenmusik Näbelhüüler the Sujetwagen.

The challenges and tasks in accounting are easier to manage in a family business. Working part-time gives me flexibility and allows me to combine my professional and family life. In my free time, I enjoy singing in the Feel the Spirit choir and traveling.

The idea of sustainability is very important to me. Accounting is the right place for me, because numbers are my thing. I prefer to spend my free time with my family. I am also committed to integration in Kriens.

I am your first telephone contact and happy to help you further. There is a solution for everything: together we will achieve the set goal.
From my workplace I have a wonderful view of Lucerne's local mountain, Mount Pilatus. However, as I'm fully committed to the NBS, Pilatus doesn't get much of a chance. That's why I enjoy the view of the Rigi from my garden at home.

NBS always supported me during my training as a businesswoman so that I could pursue football and my profession at the same time. Now I have been given the chance to gain experience as a clerk in internal sales and marketing and I am always available as a contact person for our customers.

At NBS AG, I am involved in technical project management and support our projects with great care and a sense of responsibility. In my free time, I love to play soccer and spend a lot of time with my friends.

NBS AG has always supported and accompanied me during my apprenticeship as a businesswoman. Thanks to this help, I can successfully complete my training and at the same time live my dream on the football pitch. And when I'm not in the office, you can find me on the football pitch.

I am passionate about playing football and am currently completing my commercial traineeship at NBS AG. Outside of work, I do a lot of sport, enjoy spending time with my family and am often out and about with friends. This keeps me motivated, balanced and able to give my best every day.

With my basic training as a precision mechanic and the various further training courses, I support all areas of the company's activities.
As Head of Technology & Purchasing, there are new challenges every day. In addition, there is the enormous variety, be it in new projects, maintenance or repair work, which accompany me in everyday life.

My goal:
Developing solutions together with our customers and implementing them successfully.

My approach:
I draw on my experience, but I also like to think outside the box and explore new avenues rather than just the most obvious ones. For me, it's not about describing problems, but finding solutions that work in the long term.

My motto:
"Nothing is impossible."

A smooth and problem-free processing of your projects is very important to me.
With precise planning and appropriate execution, customer satisfaction is also guaranteed. As a balance to the work, I like to listen to music and enjoy the freedom in nature.

The projects at NBS require a great deal of technical knowledge, comprehensive planning and a thorough consultation with the customer. So it's a pleasure to find optimal solutions together with the customer and the internal team. To air out my private life, I play rugby in a club and spend a lot of time with my family.

For me, there is far more to every control system than just technology - it is the heart of every system. Only the interplay of precision, logic and intelligent processes makes modern systems truly efficient. That's why control systems deserve to be developed as intelligently and reliably as possible.

As a control technician with roots in electrical installation and further training as a computer scientist, I love developing smart and individual solutions on a daily basis that make our systems more efficient and future-proof.

I find my private balance in martial arts, strength training and climbing, as well as motor sports and gaming. And when I want to take it a little easier, I enjoy meeting up with friends in a smoker lounge for a good Dominican cigar.

Whether it's assembly, repairs, service work or complete overhauls: I am their man for the technical. Since 2014, I have been responsible for plant engineering at NBS; and day by day it goes on. Hydraulic aggregates, mechanical plant engineering and electrical control processes are my speciality.

Through my training as well as 10 years of professional experience as an industrial mechanic specializing in maintenance / servicing, I have gained experience with all technical elements. Furthermore, in March 2020 I successfully completed my state-certified technician with a focus on development/construction. I can use this extensive knowledge at the company NBS and I am always looking forward to new challenges. In my private life, I find balance in various sports, golfing and motorcycling.

I like to lend a hand where real manual work is required. I work precisely, practically and with a lot of experience. In my free time, I often play table tennis or spend time outdoors in nature, where I find the perfect balance to my work.

What I like most about my job is that it is varied and traveling to different assignments is simply part of it for me. Good teamwork is also important to me, because many things work better together. In my free time, I like to go out with friends or play football to clear my head. I also like to read biographies in between.

What I appreciate about my job in assembly is that you can immediately see the results of your work and feel what you have created. A correctly assembled part, a functioning system or a completed project motivates me every day. In my free time, I enjoy being out in nature, doing sport and playing team games with enthusiasm.

In the warehouse, I particularly enjoy the wide range of tasks and the daily contact with a wide variety of people. I like to work in a structured way and make sure that everything is in the right place at the right time. In my free time, I spend a lot of time with my wife in the countryside or on my bike. And I'm looking forward to spending my time here at the company until I retire.
