Your mission:
- Help shape and evolve Apaleo's brand - contributing to how we look, feel, and communicate across every touchpoint
- Bring conceptual ideas to the table: the ambition of this role goes beyond execution. We want you to think about brand, challenge conventions, and propose creative directions

- Currently studying Brand Design, Visual Communication, Art & Design, Digital Technologies, or a related creative or commercial field

- Commercially minded: you understand that brand design serves a business purpose, and you design with that in mind
- Fluent in brand systems, typography, colour, hierarchy, tone, and visual language are second nature to you
- Proactive and opinionated, you bring ideas without being asked, and you can articulate why they work

Working student essentials
What this Design working student role in Munich means for you: the weekly-hours rules, the social-contribution perks, and what international students should check before applying.
Weekly hours
Working students may work up to 20 hours a week during the semester and full-time during the breaks. Staying within this keeps your student status and the Werkstudent benefits.
Working student rulesSocial contributions
Under the Werkstudentenprivileg you're exempt from health, care and unemployment insurance contributions — only pension insurance applies. That leaves more net pay than a regular job.
Check your insuranceInternational students
Non-EU students can work 140 full or 280 half days per year (raised from 120/240 in March 2024). A working student contract usually fits within this — confirm the exact limits printed on your residence permit.
