Job Description

Job Description:

Airbus Defence and Space is looking for a

Working student (d/f/m) in Strategic Procurement

Are you a full-time student (d/f/m) looking for a working student position and would like to familiarise yourself with the work of strategic procurement? Then apply now! We would be delighted if you could support us in Strategic Aerostructure Procurement as a working student (d/f/m) for approx. 15 - 18 hours per week!

  • Location: Manching
  • Start: Immediately
  • Duration: Approx. 12 months

Around 60% of the value of the Airbus Products comes from our external supply chain, composed from thousands of suppliers all over the world. The Procurement function is therefore a key contributor to the sustainable profitability and to the technical innovation of Airbus.

Definition working student
Working students are students who are enrolled at a University or some other institution of higher education, and who are employed in a reasonably long, fixed-term position parallel to their studies. This position must not be confused with an internship or with the possibility of writing a final thesis.
This employment usually takes place directly on the company's premises. A working student's main focus remains on their studies, which is why, during term-time, working students are not allowed to work more than 20 hours per week.
Working students therefore usually work near their place of study, so as to conveniently combine studying and employment.

Your location
Located about an hour’s drive north of Munich, Manching is an up-and-coming market town that offers a wide range of leisure and cultural activities. Here, you can enjoy the quality of life in the countryside while the pleasures of near-by cities are still within easy reach.

Your benefits

  • Attractive salary and work-life balance with an 18-hour week (flexitime).
  • A final thesis is possible after consultation with the department.
  • Mobile working after agreement with the department.
  • Traveling overseas or within Germany (team events) is possible after consultation and agreement from the department.
  • International environment with the opportunity to network globally.
  • Work with modern/diversified technologies.
  • At Airbus, we see you as a valuable team member and you are not hired to brew coffee, instead you are in close contact with the interfaces and are part of our weekly team meetings.
  • Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network.

Your tasks and responsibilities
