We are a team of over 750 experts of 55 different nationalities, dedicated to creating a state-of-the-art unified commerce platform. Our goal is to enable businesses to delight their customers with a seamless payment experience.

Our offices: We are based across Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Luxembourg with a HQ in Berlin.
About The Team
At Unzer, we make payment simple – for thousands of merchants across Europe. To keep our colleagues working smoothly every day, our Group Service Desk makes sure the technology runs. That’s where you come in: as a working student, you will join a supportive team that is the first point of contact for all IT questions across the company.
What your work will look like:
- Be the first point of contact for our colleagues with IT requests – via ticket, phone and chat (1st level support).
- Log incidents and requests, document them properly in our ticketing system, and resolve them independently or route them to the right place.
- Support the onboarding of new colleagues: preparing hardware, setting up accounts and managing access.
- Help manage software and hardware and keep our knowledge base up to date.
- Bring your own ideas on how we can make our service even faster and friendlier.
- You’re an enrolled student – ideally in (business) informatics, but other fields are welcome too.
- You’re passionate about technology and quickly find your way around common IT topics (e.g. Windows, Microsoft 365, ticketing systems).
- You work in a service-oriented, solution-focused way and keep an overview even with several requests at once.
- You communicate confidently in English and German.
- A sense of responsibility and reliability are second nature to you.
- Real responsibility from day one and a team that supports and develops you.
- Flexible working hours that fit around your class schedule.
- Insights into the IT landscape of a leading European payment company.
- A modern office in Frankfurt and an open, first-name culture.
- The chance to kick off your career with us after graduation.

Working student essentials
What this Tech working student role in Frankfurt means for you — the weekly-hours rules, 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.
