The people of EXATEL

Elżbieta Borkowska

HR Director

“People are the most important. Everyone has their own story and unique knowledge. Together we create modern telecommunications.” 

The power of our organisation lies in the people. Development, competence and responsibility are our strengths. 

Why EXATEL? 

For several years we have been intensively developing our team and competences to create more and more unique projects. We love what we do. We experience the ups and downs together. We grow and confront daily challenges together. We believe that thanks to us the world changes for the better. It is the sense of common purpose that is our fuel for everyday efforts. 

We’re a close-knit team. Sales support, accounting, administration, controlling, sales, developers, analysts, technicians, network architects, HR… We work in different areas, but we share a sense of mission and the realisation that each of us has a real impact on the development of the entire organization.

HR Business Partner

“HR is my conscious choice. HR, as a strategic partner for business, enables co-creating a company and supporting people in their personal and organizational development. Combining the role of an HR Business Partner with Employer Branding activities is very satisfying. At EXATEL, I have the pleasure of fulfilling my professional ambitions and working with fantastic individuals.”

 For me, as a HR specialist, human relations are the most important. Building effective teams, while being a partner for the management, and not only the executor of its will; recruiting, introducing new faces to the company and supporting them in adapting to their new workplace – this is very life-fulfilling. Finding solutions to problems and difficulties reported by either employees or managers is an integral part of my work. Moreover, observing the outcomes – particularly when such solutions aid others in their work – is a pleasure.

Network Architecture<br /> and Planning Director

“In the 1990s, when I was in high school, I read the now- famous slogan in the newspaper: the Network is the Computer. It was like a revelation. That’s when I felt the network was my world.” 

Telecommunications is the network. It’s where everything starts and it’s what makes everything work – the network that Michał’s team is planning. 

Why EXATEL? 

An architect is a visionary. A creator of the space in which you move. However, there is a space in which you move, but you may not notice it. It’s cyberspace. It’s a world of cables without which there is no access to the Internet or no possibility to communicate by phone. This network spans the globe and EXATEL international infrastructure is an important part of it. 

But for Michał, the constructed network is just the starting point. Today is already a history. What matters is what happens tomorrow. That is why for years he’s been creating the future. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) technology, #Polskie5G, intercontinental submarine optical fibre. The projects Michał is planning with his team are supposed to be ambitious, but above all – achievable. Ones that will change our reality. 

And the goal of all this is to deliver the highest quality telecommunications services and actively create the technologies of tomorrow.

Deputy Director of the R&D department

„The world is changing so rapidly that it is impossible to stand still. Either you are in the vanguard or you just keeping up. The third option is to stay far behind. We always want to boldly go where no one has gone before.”

Research & development is a tough racket. But someone has to do it. Why shouldn’t it be EXATEL?

Why EXATEL

The first battle that is fought is always with yourself. Is it worth improving? Will it be possible? Will I be able to do it? EXATEL has a long tradition of proving that it can. In spite of stereotypes and with the awareness of our strengths and limitations – we use all this to move forward. We don’t rely on “because everyone does like this”. We do not believe in adjusting the customer to what we know. We always tailor the solution to the individual needs of the client. This was always the case with telco services. Now this is the case with cybersecurity.

Strategic Technology Initiatives Manager

“Nothing is impossible in technology. It all depends on the approach. If you have the knowledge and the tools – problems become just temporary obstacles.” 

Don’t talk, just do. Effectiveness is based on action. 

Why EXATEL? 

Once you challenge yourself, aim high. When you want to develop telecommunications, do it at a dizzying speed. Do you need help of a competent people? Find the best in the market. Do you need a satellite teleport within 8 months? Built from scratch? Give your experts the goal, the tools, and organisational support. Because goals are there to be achieved. 

Today we don’t need to look for new challenges. They appear by themselves. It is enough to look reasonably into the future to successfully set directions – such as the Earth Observation Satellite System or further services for business and state organisations. And we don’t stop here.

Project Manager – Sales Support Team

“You need to network 2,498 outlets and you have 40 days to do it. You work for a large industrial company and you’ve just realised that a hacker got deep into your systems. On top of that, it’s the middle of the holidays and you don’t have any cybersecurity contract. You have to act fast. And we know how.” 

You don’t follow in anyone’s footsteps. And we don’t sell ready-made products. 

Why EXATEL? 

Your organisation’s cyberspace is the world that you create. It’s a little different in each organisation. You don’t need the technology on its own. You need solutions to specific problems. That’s why we don’t sell cables, we don’t sell IT. We do not rely on ready-made products. We enter your world and take notes. A project is being created before your eyes. 

When we move to deployment, we turn creative chaos into a precise plan. We use agile project methodologies. Our engineers create wide area networks (WANs) and unique security systems. Those are tailor-made solutions. Chief Sanitary Inspectorate, Totalizator Sportowy, Oriflame – these are just examples of companies that use our services and can confirm our competences.
