The Role
Join the Wingtra team and become part of this venture-backed robotics scaleup with a global and international team of 125+ dedicated Wingtranauts who want to see their actions have a positive and lasting impact on the world. Founded more than 8 years ago at ETH Zurich, Europe’s leading robotics university, our goal is to build the best aerial robots to digitize the world at the push of a button and set the basis for faster and better decisions. Wingtra provides efficient and reliable data solutions to a variety of industries ranging from mining, construction and agriculture to humanitarian organizations, environmentalists and wildlife monitoring groups.

We are reaching for the stars and together we might just get there. Open communication, asking hard questions and valuing diverse viewpoints are but a few things that will help us achieve our goals. Above all we will never stop learning and striving to help each other reach our maximum potential.

Are you a highly organized, proactive student who enjoys multitasking and keeping things running smoothly? Do you thrive in dynamic environments, enjoy supporting others, and love a tidy, well-functioning workplace? If so, we’d love to hear from you!

We’re looking for a Working Student – Business & Office Administrator to support our Wingtranauts and help ensure the office runs efficiently. You’ll be at the heart of our daily operations and gain hands-on experience in administration, coordination, and events.

Responsibilities

  • Ensure smooth day-to-day office operations: manage supplies, food orders, mail, scanning, and general email inbox
  • Handle internal requests and help maintain a tidy, functional office
  • Organise internal and external events 
  • Act as a point of contact for service providers (cleaning, property management, subtenants)
  • Assist with onboarding/offboarding: desk setup, key handover, checklists, and welcome kits
  • Prepare our set-up for weekly internal presentations and assist with communication tasks
  • Manage internal/external merchandise stock and distributions
  • Proactively support a positive office atmosphere and take on additional tasks within the finance and people team if time allows

Requirements

  • Fluent in German and English, both written and spoken
  • Strong organizational skills and ability to multitask
  • Proactive, detail-oriented, and able to work independently
  • Interest in event planning and internal culture
  • Tech-savvy (Google Workspace or similar)
  • Friendly, team-minded, and reliable
  • Flexible to support 2–3 external events per year, including occasional off-hours
  • Availability: Friday afternoon is mandatory; the remaining hours should be spread as evenly as possible across the week to ensure continuous support.

If you enjoy teamwork more than being the individual superhero, and if you thrive in a feedback-driven culture and an exciting, unconventional yet structured and progressive start-up environment, we would love to hear from you.
