Mee Fun Koh (Director, Freight Management & Solution & Customs operation Asia Pacific)

I’ve been with Schaeffler for 19 years, and my journey has been truly rewarding. Starting out as a Customer Service Administrator, I’ve had the opportunity to grow through various roles, including Supply Chain Management in Malaysia, setting up the regional Shared Service Center for Logistics function, and now in Transportation Management for Asia Pacific. Schaeffler has provided me with opportunities to learn and develop my skills, supporting my professional growth every step of the way. I am also grateful for the supportive and talented colleagues I’ve had the pleasure to work with, whose collaboration and camaraderie have made my experience even more enriching. I look forward to continuing my journey with Schaeffler and contributing to its success.

Farmie bin Haripapbilah (Industrial Sector & Lifetime Solutions Manager, Bearings & Industrial Solutions, Malaysia)

I’ve been with Schaeffler for nearly seven years, and it has been a truly remarkable journey for me. Schaeffler has given me the opportunity to grow my career from a Field Service Engineer to my current position, which has been both rewarding and meaningful. Throughout this journey, I’ve shared many memorable moments and achieved success together with my colleagues, partners, and customers. We’ve been able to change the way people perceive us—from being seen not only as an OEM bearing supplier, but also as a trusted advisor. Schaeffler has provided me with a strong platform to develop my career and expand my knowledge, and I am sincerely grateful for the opportunities and support I have received.
