Global wood-based panel manufacturer with operations across six continents
Kastamonu Entegre is a Turkish wood-based panel producer operating manufacturing facilities across Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Russia, and Italy, plus a US logistics branch. The hiring mix—heavily weighted toward HR, executive, and research roles with only one engineering posting—reflects a company scaling international payroll, compensation frameworks, and dealer networks rather than product R&D or platform engineering. Current projects (KPI frameworks, academy programs, headcount planning, incentive structures, payroll coordination) confirm a people and sales infrastructure phase.
