Description

Your responsibilities Are you looking for an internship that not only fulfills your degree program requirements but also gives you a full picture of the range of HR responsibilities? Then keep reading—we might be the right fit for you! You’ll gain insight into all aspects of HR work—from recruiting and onboarding to occupational safety, payroll management, employee engagement initiatives, and resolving labor law issues. HR at EP is typical of an SME environment: generalist and very broad in scope. This means that even as an intern, you’ll gradually take on administrative tasks as well as project work related to employee retention and development. This internship is ideal for someone eager to be actively involved right from the start and to contribute to the full range of tasks. Some examples of the work include: HR administration (maintaining HR master data in Personio, creating documents and certificates) Recruiting (job postings, candidate communication, scheduling, preparing for, conducting, and evaluating job interviews) On- and offboarding (e.g., preparing workstations, orientations, and welcome meetings) Internal and external communication (management, government agencies, payroll office, service providers) Reporting (creating statistics and analyses using Excel and Personio) Preparatory payroll accounting (coordinating contract-related content) Employee events (conceptual and organizational support in collaboration with Marketing) Point of contact for all employee concerns Participation in clarification meetings regarding labor law or social security issues Participation in employee reviews (feedback and/or crisis meetings) What your team does Your profile This internship is a good fit for you if… You are enrolled in a degree program related to human resources (psychology, business administration, law, etc.) Your degree program requires an internship You have at least 10 weeks available for the internship You can communicate confidently in German and English You can complete the internship in person at the office—not remotely You have a positive, people-oriented attitude, healthy self-confidence, and a good sense of humor You’re eager to play an active role in shaping the future at an international company in Cologne. Why us? What makes EP Equipment special is its international character. Around 35 people work in the Cologne office, speaking 14 different native languages. As a result, the main language used in the office is English. In addition to our Cologne office, we employ people across several companies and at various locations, which has a significant impact on HR work and gives you the chance to gain insight into issues within a small company that usually only arise in large corporations. • Responsibility: You will be able to take on specific tasks independently even during your internship • Broad insight: You will encounter almost every aspect of HR • Modern working environment: Industrial design on the outside, modern offices on the inside. • Excellent transport links: Parking spaces for cars and bicycles, KVB stops “Von Sparr-Straße” and “Schanzenstraße Nord” just around the corner. • International team: A multicultural team with colleagues from more than 14 countries. • Start-up atmosphere: A company that thinks innovatively whilst maintaining a stable market position – you can grow with us. If you are interested and suitable for the role, there is also the possibility of continuing to work with us as a working student after your internship. Get in contact with EP As we view HR not merely as an administrative role but as a central hub for all employees, we believe it is important to have a physical presence on site. This is therefore not a remote role; a modern, well-equipped office workspace awaits you.
