Career

Welcome to nicos! A modern and bright working environment awaits you in rob17 directly on the Dortmund-Ems Canal. Our premises extend over three floors and are connected by an elevator without barriers. The highlight? Our covered terrace for working, taking breaks together or chatting with colleagues in the fresh air.
If you like dogs, you've come to the right place - four-legged friends are allowed in the offices and we have already built up a loyal base of animal colleagues. However, consideration for each other is important to us - if colleagues have respect for dogs, the dogs know how to behave and keep their distance so that everyone feels comfortable.

The location of our premises in rob17 offers excellent connections to various means of transportation.
You can get here by public transport by bus or train - the city bus line 17 takes you from Münster main station to the "Umgehungsstraße" stop on Robert-Bosch-Straße in 10 minutes. If you arrive by car, you can park it in the spacious parking garage. nicos subsidizes the paid parking spaces, so you only pay a monthly fee of 25 euros. 4 of the nicos parking spaces are equipped with e-charging stations. You also benefit from good connections to the B51 bypass - and from there to the A1 and A43 freeways.
In the cycling city of Münster, nicos is also easy to reach by "Leeze" (Münsterland for "bicycle"). To make sure your bike survives the time until closing time, we offer covered bicycle parking spaces including an air pump next to the parking garage.

Snacks welcome: To keep your vitamin levels up, you can help yourself to fruit and vegetables (we make sure they are regional, seasonal and organic). This is delivered fresh every week and made available to all colleagues. A fine selection of hot drinks and water straight from the BRITA brand filter tap have been available at nicos for a long time, free of charge. A personal glass carafe is available for you to "refill again and again", also with boiling water. There are also catering options outside nicos: right next door or just a few minutes' walk away, you can get something to eat at ALDI, Amo Ali (kebab), LIDL, a bakery or Subway. Employees of nicos can also use the canteen of a neighboring company for hot and cold meals for lunch and breakfast. We wish you bon appétit!

If you like, you can bring your body and mind into harmony once a week when our yoga instructor comes to the company and the yoga mats are rolled out. For all those who want to be even more active, we offer a membership with Hansefit. This allows you to train nationwide in a network of several thousand sports partners. This is corporate health management from a single source - offline, digital, flexible and with endless possibilities. And with the Business Bike, you kill two birds with one stone: exercise and climate-friendly mobility on your way to work and in your free time. This is not only good for the environment, but also for your wallet. And on top of that, you're also doing something good for your body.

Personnel development ensures that employees are well equipped to achieve their own and the company's goals. If you are open to further training and take a proactive approach to your own development, regular discussions about this with your manager offer the opportunity to identify success factors for working together. After all, personnel development is also appreciation: we invest in you because we are aware that the knowledge of our employees is a resource for the joint success of the company. In order to make this tangible, we have been using nicos competence management since 2020 to make employees' individual skills, knowledge and experience tangible and visible. Tools for structured discussions are available for this purpose - which also leave plenty of room for joint dialog.
We are convinced that everyone has skills that contribute to the success of the company and that their use and development create personal satisfaction. We want to identify your potential together and develop the relevant skills. Their assessment begins in recruiting and continues throughout the employee journey. This enables you to determine where you stand and shows you how to act in the future. In addition, the most important results of the interviews are summarized in your personal Employee Success Map. It will guide your development over the next 12 months (and beyond). Challenging and promoting is made transparent for everyone here. Ideas and measures resulting from the joint discussions can also form part of the commitment and, in the best-case scenario, open up scope for action that offers you personal and entrepreneurial prospects.

We don't know exactly whether it's better to celebrate with the "you" across all levels because we have no comparison here. But there are plenty of opportunities to celebrate well: in addition to larger company events such as summer and winter parties, company anniversaries and the unique (in both senses of the word) housewarming party, there are other smaller-scale events. You can look forward to BBQs on our roof terrace as well as joint outdoor activities such as climbing, rafting, diving and city tours. When visitors come from our subsidiaries in the Philippines and Australia, our colleagues from Münster enthusiastically serve up and fill the buffet with home-made specialties from their home countries - with our multicultural employees from over 11 nations, there are quite a few delicacies on offer. One highlight is the well-attended joint games evenings, which are also a great way to get to know your new colleagues. You are also very welcome to join our nicos Cyclists Team and therefore the annual city cycling event and the Münster Marathon team.

nicos attaches great importance to the compatibility of work, family and leisure time. For this reason, we offer you 30 vacation days per year and special leave days for exceptional personal events. Of course, you will also have Christmas and New Year's Eve off (24/7 support is guaranteed 365 days a year). In addition, with flexible working hours and the option to work remotely, you can organize your everyday life around your family and leisure activities.
Since 2023, we have been guided by the "Success Factor Family" progress index of the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs in order to sustainably consolidate and expand the compatibility of family and career for our employees.

We are aware of our responsibility towards our employees, the environment and society and have therefore integrated Corporate Responsibility 2020 as an integral part of our corporate culture.
This responsibility extends across a wide range of measures, many of which we have already implemented since 2020: the development of the niCodex, which shows our employees how to treat each other with respect and appreciation in everyday life, the conversion of procurement channels for office supplies to use sustainable products (coffee, tea, printer paper...) and much more.
