Office & Business Support Assistant

Office & Business Support Assistant

Helping people, keeping things moving, making everyday work easier.

A varied role at the heart of our Hamburg office | 20 hours per week to full-time

Kongsberg Maritime is a global technology company with a strong international environment and a long maritime heritage. In our Hamburg office, many different people and topics come together. A meeting needs organising, a colleague needs practical support, an invoice needs clarification or something at the site simply needs to be taken care of. As our Office & Business Support Assistant, you help keep everyday work running smoothly by organising, coordinating and following up. If you enjoy variety, bring structure to different topics and like getting things done, you will probably feel at home in this role. Depending on your experience and strengths, there is room to take ownership of additional topics over time.
