Are you looking for a training position that develops not only your career but also your personality? Welcome to UNITY Consulting & Innovation - a company that not only carries innovation in its name but also lives and promotes it.

Apps, computers, leetspeak or C# are not foreign words to you? You want to develop your own programmes? Then you are exactly right here as a future part of our internal IT department.

Your training at UNITY is:

Diverse: As a trainee IT specialist* at UNITY, you will be part of a highly motivated team and contribute to projects introducing the latest technologies from day one of your training.
Practice-oriented: Benefit from hands-on training that prepares you optimally for the challenges of the IT world. Implement complex systems in the hardware and software areas of information and telecommunications technology.
Exciting: Dive into the world of digital innovation and gain deep insights into varied projects of the internal IT department.
Strongly supported: Work in a dynamic team of experts who share their passion for technology and support each other.
Strengths-oriented: Discover your strengths and shape your career according to your individual interests and abilities.

What you bring with you

Passion for technology: You are passionate about IT and technology, and new developments spark your curiosity along with a strong affinity for computers/software.
Willingness to learn: You see challenges as opportunities and are ready to learn continuously. As a sign of this, your report card shines with good grades in mathematics and/or computer science.
Team spirit: You value teamwork and like to contribute your ideas through your open personality.
Communication skills: You can communicate complex technical concepts clearly and have good German and English skills.
You have (or will soon have) successfully obtained your secondary school leaving certificate - higher qualifications are a plus.

Not mandatory, but always welcome:

Have already developed some programmes yourself.
Driving licence class B.
You have an open personality that you like to integrate into the team.
If you puzzle over a task independently, it does not unsettle you.

Not a 100% match? - No problem! We support you during your training in your personal and professional development. So what are you waiting for?

What you can look forward to

Training remuneration (gross/month): 1st year €1,050 · 2nd year €1,150 · 3rd year €1,250. Plus €600 gross annually variable upon full target achievement. You discuss your goals with your training supervisor at the beginning of each year. Gross amounts, as of July 2026.
A trainee group that deserves the name: 12 trainees and dual students from several cohorts. This is not a given in consulting — so there is always someone to learn from.
Biannual development discussions with your supervisor — structured, with written results, not ad hoc.
Working with modern technology stacks: Modern cloud platforms, the latest technologies in client security and many more.
Mentoring programme: A fixed contact person from the trainee group from day 1, independent of your training management.
Professional self-realisation: Actively work on projects and take on responsibilities that match your strengths.
Regular trainee events e.g. trainee sailing trip, sports events or the joint Libori visit.
UNITYacademy & trade fair visits: Learn additional content beyond training topics in our internal academy or at trade fairs such as IT SA.
Unique corporate culture: You are part of our "UNITY spirit" and bring your authentic self.

Trainee statement & your personal contact

"I feel well supported by UNITY from all sides – whether professionally or personally. I am especially grateful that I can do my training part-time – because with four children, a classic full-time model would not have been feasible. Individual challenges are also addressed flexibly. And when I get a new topic, I have enough time to really familiarise myself calmly." - Olga, trainee IT specialist
