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: Hamburg Finkenwerder

You will be working at the largest production site for civil aircraft situated in Hamburg. Its location on the southern banks of the river Elbe includes the option to commute by ferry. Experience the special flair of Hamburg in your spare time where vibrant cosmopolitan culture meets nautic legacy.

Are you wondering how you actually get from university to Airbus? Your working student position is at the Finkenwerder plant and you can take the ferry from Teufelsbrück to the Airbus ferry terminal and back to the university in the morning and at noon. Alternatively, you can take the ferry to Finkenwerder and then ride your bike for about another 15 minutes to the main entrance.

Your benefits

• Attractive salary and work-life balance with an 18-hour week (flexitime).

• 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 Mission

You will play a vital role in supporting our team and management as we design the most efficient, sustainable, and innovative industrial system for the next Airbus aircraft.

How You Will Make an Impact:

• Coordinate & Align: Help keep our international teams connected and on track by co-creating and managing progress updates across time, cost, and quality.

• Encourage Fresh Perspectives: Bring your unique curiosity to the table. We value open dialogue and encourage you to constructively question the "status quo" to help us discover creative, innovative paths forward.

• Foster Connection: Support the organization and execution of collaborative events that bring our management and transnational teams together.

The Team

You will join a diverse, supportive, and highly collaborative network of Airbus industrial architects across Germany, France, and Spain, alongside our external partners. We pride ourselves on a culture of mutual respect, learning, and cross-border cooperation.
