Four strong product brands
JOST - the strong core brand
The core brand JOST includes classic products for truck and trailer manufacturers, such as fifth wheel couplings or landing legs. Building on this, systems have been developed that automate, control and monitor activities that were previously carried out manually. Sensor-controlled solutions thus make operation not only safer and easier, but also more economical.
ROCKINGER - for more traction
Whether standard trailer hitch or sensor-controlled, remote-controlled, backlash-free comfort hitch: the traditional brand offers an extraordinarily versatile, high-quality and reliable product range and is regularly awarded "Best Brand in Trailer Couplings" by end users. The robust products are available for the road as well as for the agricultural and forestry sector.
TRIDEC - solutions for individualists
Improved manoeuvrability, smaller turning circles, less tyre wear and reduced fuel consumption: important factors in a world that places more emphasis on efficiency and ecology in all areas. Because no trailer combination is the same, TRIDEC offers modular, customised solutions. They can be found in all areas of application, from city trailers with single axles to 250t hydraulically steered transport platforms.
Quicke - the intelligent brand of agriculture
Quicke has been developing and producing high-quality front loaders and implements since 1949. The innovative brand is known as one of the driving forces behind the modernisation and digitalisation of the agricultural business. Quicke continues on its path to becoming a full-range supplier of front loaders and implements - always with the Quicke philosophy "Work smarter, not harder" to make the application more efficient and convenient for customers.
The Four Strong Product Brands
The core brand includes traditional products for truck and trailer manufacturers, such as fifth wheel couplings or landing gears. Based on these products, the company has developed systems that serve to automate, control and monitor activities that were previously done by hand. Sensor-controlled solutions make operation not only easier and safer, but also more efficient.
Improved manoeuvrability, smaller turning circles, reduced tyre wear and lower fuel consumption – crucial factors in a world where efficiency and the environment are becoming ever more important in every aspect of our lives. Because no two trailer hitches are alike, TRIDEC offers modular and customised solutions. They can be found in all application areas, from single-axle city trailers to 250 t hydraulically-steered transport platforms.
Be it standard towing hitches or sensor and remote-controlled, slack-free comfort coupling – the long-established brand offers an extremely versatile, high-quality and reliable product range. No wonder that ROCKINGER is regularly named the “best brand” in the towing hitches sector by end customers. The robust products are available both for road use and for use in agriculture and forestry.
Since 1949, Quicke is developing and manufacturing high quality front loaders and implements. The innovative brand has been known to be one of the driving forces in modernizing and digitizing the agricultural business. Quicke is still continuing the journey towards being a complete manufacturer of front loaders and associated implements – with its philosophy letting customers “work smarter, not harder”.

Product Management
Our product portfolio is as diverse as the various topics around our products. Market and competition monitoring, business cases and participation in development projects - all thes aspects are the focus of our product managers.
Product Development
Innovative products that match the needs of our customers are the driving force behind our company. Our designers and development engineers work in specialised teams on the new and further development of our diverse product groups – in close co-ordination with colleagues from Product Management, Quality Assurance etc.
Production
Our success is based on our safe, high-quality and reliable products. The foundations are laid for this in their production: Whether you work as a machine and plant operator, an assembly worker or a painter – we offer you a wide range of possible job opportunities in the production environment.
Sales and Marketing
Even the successful products of a global market leader need to be marketed and distributed. Local needs must be recognised and fulfilled. That’s why sales and marketing work hand in hand. The sales department looks after our global customers by phone or on site, while the customer service department supports customers from the German location. The marketing department helps to present the products in their very best light and prepare the information required by our customers.
Procurement
In order to be able to sell our products as cost-effectively as possible, we would like to procure the necessary raw materials, auxiliary materials and operating materials as cheaply as possible, while still maintaining a high quality. As an employee in Procurement, you are therefore an important part of the value chain and must ensure that there is always sufficient material available.
Logistics
The satisfaction of our customers is crucial to our success. From the forklift driver to the employees in order processing and production control, our logistics team ensures that the desired product is available to our customers on schedule – often just-in-time.
IT
Digitalisation is progressing noticeably and is impacting our daily work. Information and communication technology makes our day-to-day work easier and enables the securing and further development of production and business processes through ERP systems. But the processes are only as good as the clever minds behind them. We need IT specialists in a variety of fields at JOST.
Technical Service
All questions concerning commissioning, repair and maintenance are answered by our Technical Service department. In addition, the employees of the Technical Service department offer customer trainings to ensure the safe application of JOST products.
Finance & Controlling
This increasingly complex world needs people who see the bigger picture. We count on committed personalities with an affinity for numbers and excellent analytical skills. The monitoring of our customer and creditor invoices is just as important as the number-based analysis and control of our parent company and its subsidiaries.
Test department
Safety-critical products like ours must be extensively checked and tested before they go on sale. Every day, employees give their all to test the longevity and resilience of the products inside and out.
Quality
All processes and procedures are monitored worldwide by Quality Management. This ensures that we do justice to our certifications and our customers’ expectations. Of course, product quality also plays an important role and employees in the Quality Assurance department pay particular attention to this. Our purchased parts and our own products are extensively tested and measures for the prevention of errors are derived.
Human Resources
The people we work with are very important to us. We know that the success of our business is down to our employees and that they are committed to helping the business grow. Our human resources department deals with a wide range of tasks from recruiting and supporting new employees to individualised career planning. Come aboard and work towards achieving long-term employee satisfaction.
