• Independent implementation of tenders, awards, bid evaluations and support with approvals

Is this position right for you?

• Assertiveness, communication skills and entrepreneurial thinking
• Very good knowledge of German and English

What you will like about us:

• Our flexible working hours: 40-hour week with flexitime rule and weekly home office option (max. 2 days per week)
• Permanent position with an attractive salary
• capital-forming benefits
• Continuing education: Internal academy "WSP learns" as well as regular internal and external training
