Unique possibilities.

Development

At ena, you’re encouraged to grow. We see employment as a starting point, not an endpoint. Our agile processes and cross-team collaboration open up exciting new perspectives across teams and levels.

Training and lifelong learning

Passionate and experienced employees are the foundation of our dynamic and close-knit team. That’s why we train three commercial apprentices and support both on-the-job and off-the-job education and training.

Creative freedom

What makes us unique: As a small team, we rely on the commitment of each individual. Accordingly, we create spaces where everyone can take initiative, shape, and contribute in meaningful ways.

Internationality

The impact of our work is global—and our daily work tends too have an international flavor. Every day, we are in contact with network partners and local partner organizations around the globe and we visit them regularly.

"A dedicated team, meaningful projects, and great partners open up opportunities for the future."

Application process

Transparent and honest.

In our application process, we are transparent with you from the start. This means we will quickly let you know if we feel we are not a good match. It also means that during the recruitment process, you will have the chance to meet your new team and the management. Moreover, we prioritize personality and expertise over quickly filling vacancies. That’s why we take the time to find the right person.

    Recruitment

    Professional qualifications and personality.

    We often start with a short phone call to quickly determine if you would be a good fit for the team. Alongside your professional qualifications, we place a strong emphasis on your personality. Following this phone call, there are one or two formal interviews where you’ll also get to meet the team and the management.

    Employment

    A yes on both sides.

    After the second interview at the latest - and possibly after we have obtained references - we will inform you of our final decision. If both parties agree, we will issue the employment contract and prepare your start at ena together. Welcome to ena!
