Would you like to take on responsibility in an international project environment and help ensure that naval ships remain reliably operational and are built cost-effectively?

• Utilizing your proactive and solution-oriented approach to optimize existing processes and actively contribute to the acceleration and improvement of project-related workflows

What’s in your kitbag

• A bachelor’s degree in a technical or business field, such as naval architecture, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, maritime technologies, or business administration – or a comparable qualification
