For applicants
You are in good hands here.
We place people in work at the airport, in logistics and in industry — full-time, part-time or for a career change.
How applying works
Your name, place of residence, phone number and email address are enough.
Everything else is optional and can follow later. No cover letter, no mandatory fields nobody wants to fill in.
- 01
Find a position
Through the job search. If nothing fits, a speculative application works too.
- 02
Apply briefly
Your name, place of residence, phone number and email address will do. You can attach documents straight away — or later, if you do not have them to hand.
- 03
We get back to you
We look at what you sent and get in touch. If a security background check is required, we tell you what to expect.
What comes with it
We are your employer
Under a temporary staffing arrangement your contract is with akko GmbH, and you work on assignment at the client company. Pay, holiday and continued pay during sickness all run through us.
- The industry’s collective agreement — we apply it in full (member of the GVP).
- Occupational safety certified to SCP, TÜV-audited.
- Quality management to ISO 9001:2015.
- Training and certificates wherever the assignment calls for them — aviation security, dangerous goods, forklift, apron driving.

The ones that come up most often
Everything about applying, about working at akko and about what goes with it.
Do I need experience at an airport or in logistics?
For many jobs, no. Whether in a warehouse, in baggage handling or in an airline catering kitchen — what counts is reliability, punctuality and a willingness to work shifts. What you need to know for the job, you learn during onboarding; required training such as aviation security or a forklift licence we sort out with you beforehand. Where a qualification or work experience is needed, the job ad says so.
Do I have to send a cover letter or a CV?
No. A short application needs your name, where you live, your phone number and your email address — we do not expect a cover letter. We only need a CV where the job ad says so. Any documents an assignment requires can follow later; we discuss exactly what is needed when we talk.
How does the application work?
You apply online in a few minutes — for a specific job or speculatively. Then we call you: we get to know you, talk about working hours, location and your experience, and see which job fits. If it does, the contract, the briefing and your start date follow. For jobs in the airport’s security-restricted area, the background check comes on top; we file the application together with you.
What does it cost me?
Nothing. Our placement is free for applicants — you pay nothing for the application, and nothing for the training or certificates an assignment requires. That applies to employment with akko just as much as to a direct placement with a client company.
What working hours and shifts are there?
Depending on the job: early, late and night shifts, often at weekends and on public holidays too — the airport and many warehouses work in shifts. Every job ad states which shift model applies and whether the position is full-time or part-time; you can filter by that in the job search. If you can only work certain hours, tell us in the first conversation.
What does temporary employment with akko mean for me?
You are employed by akko GmbH and work at one of our client companies. Your contract, your pay, your holiday and your named contacts are with us; day to day you are part of the team on site. When an assignment ends, your employment with us continues.
Am I paid under a collective agreement?
Yes. We are a member of the German staffing association GVP and apply the industry’s negotiated collective agreement system in full. What a specific position pays is stated in its job ad. If the ad does not say, you hear the pay in the conversation — before you sign anything.
Can the client company take me on permanently?
That is possible if the company offers it — and for many people an assignment is exactly the route into a permanent job. We support you through that too. Some positions are advertised as a direct placement from the start: then you are employed directly by the company. The job ad shows this under contract type.
What language skills do I need?
That depends on the job. Basic German or English is enough for many roles; where more is needed, the job ad says so or we tell you when we talk. Just apply — we will look at which job suits you.
Can I apply speculatively?
Yes. Send us a speculative application even without a specific vacancy — just tell us what you are looking for, where you would like to work and when you could start. It takes the same route as any other application: name, place of residence, phone and email are enough. We get in touch when we see a job that fits you.
What happens to my data?
We use your details to process your application and to suggest suitable jobs to you. The specifics are set out in the privacy notice for applicants (in German); you can request information, correction or deletion at any time. A message via our contact form is all it takes.
Have a look around.
Our open positions are in the overview. If none of them fits, a speculative application takes the same route.
