Working Student

What should an ORCA working student bring to the table? 

Curiosity, curiosity, curiosity. And of course, openness, humor and a willingness to learn. In addition, you should be enrolled at a university and have the time and inclination to help us ORCAs out in the coming semesters! You have your bachelor’s or master’s degree in communication, political science or similar (almost) in the bag – now you are looking for exciting practical tasks in the socio-political field. Events with many guests appeal to you just as much as the solitude of the typing pool; comprehending complex, bureaucratic texts comes easily to you. You are used to working independently and in a structured manner and ideally have experience in correcting, proofreading and editing texts, for example through internships / freelance work at newspapers, initial professional experience in the field of press and public relations or similar. MS Office comes easily to you, you shine with your high sense of responsibility and quality as well as with your great interest in political current affairs. A good command of written and spoken English is an advantage, but you are also welcome to brush up on your English every Thursday with us … 

What do we offer an ORCA student? 

First and foremost, meaningful tasks with socio-political significance and the opportunity to get to know the exciting, creative and lively working environment of an agency in Berlin-Mitte with an extremely interesting range of clients. As a student assistant, you are a fully-fledged team member and can contribute your ideas – whether fresh from university or developed on your own – and implement them within our flat hierarchies. 

We focus on needs-oriented work: Via app, you flexibly choose which space you want to use when in our office – whether desk, meeting room, library or conference room. What more? Oh yes, our English lessons! Once a week, if you like and want to speak fluently on an international level. 

You feel the ORCA in you? 

Then we should get to know each other! We value diversity and welcome all applications: For us, brains and commitment count – not gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion/belief, disability, age or sexual orientation and identity. Please send your application including proof of study to: jobs@orca-affairs.de. We are looking forward to ORCA growth!
