THE ROLE AND THE TEAM
We are looking for a working student to support the Labour Relations team, which is part of the Strategic Employee Relations team of the People & Organization department of Zalando SE.
The Labour Relations team is responsible for the trust based and constructive relationship between the employees, the employee representative bodies and the management of Zalando. More specifically, our team supports and promotes the effective communication, collaboration, and mutual respect between the organisation and its Works Councils in Germany.
By joining our team, you will get many insights on the collaboration with employee representation bodies and learn a ton about codetermination (processes) with German Works Councils. You will gain unique experience working with Zalando’s SE Works Councils in an international environment and an engaged team.
