Volkswagen Group Services GmbH is the exclusive service partner within the Volkswagen Group. In the hometown of Audi, more than 400 employees provide technical, commercial and IT services, with a focus on information technology and consulting for the digitalisation of business processes in the Volkswagen Group.
Our IT services are constantly growing, which is why we also train ourselves in areas such as system integration, application development as well as data and process analysis.
It is important to us that our young workers learn what is important in their future field of work by getting on-the-job experience and personal support in each department.
Since we do not have a production area, all learning sites are located within our IT services.
Our apprentice IT lab offers you the opportunity to try out new things and search for creative solutions. Regardless of whether you would like to experiment with PCs and laptops, servers and network switches, a 3D printer, Arduino, Raspberry Pi or a Calliope mini – you can launch your own projects in your own way in the lab.
We also promote the acquisition of skills in other areas, such as communication with customers and other participating companies or professional knowledge management, with flat hierarchies and in a friendly, pleasant atmosphere.
In addition to excellent pay, we offer our apprentices and dual students:
In addition, the company guarantees graduates employment in training-related specialist areas and offers a variety of growth opportunities with its wide range of IT service areas.
I’m really pleased that we can support IT apprentices at our southern location every year and prepare them for their careers. Apprentices are very important to us, and the chances are very good that they will be offered a job in the area or department where they felt most comfortable working.
Our apprentices learn how to introduce new IT systems into the existing environment and maintain user authorisations or analyse processes and data. They manage devices and applications, program, monitor IT systems and prevent system failures. They also learn about cloud topics and the data centre of major customers. Volkswagen Group Services offers a variety of work terms and a great working environment for the perfect start to your career in IT.
Volkswagen Group Services offers IT apprenticeships with exciting opportunities in a variety of service areas – from Application Management to Server Operations and Client Services. During the apprenticeship, I will get to know a different department in the company every three to six months.

Apprentices in our department can specialise in systems integration, application development and data & process analysis:
As an IT specialist for system integration (m/f/x), you enable the operation of IT such as servers, network components or individual computers. To this end, you network hardware and software components and install complex systems. This also involves providing assistance to users and decision makers in shopping or using IT, for example.
As an application development specialist (m/f/x) you plan and develop software and software projects for clients. In addition to new developments, further developments are key, and you will therefore learn how to analyse existing IT systems and plan new ones. You will also train the users.
In data and process analysis, you develop database-based solutions for digital production and business processes. To do this, you need to analyse these existing work processes beforehand, select the necessary tools, identify the data sources and ensure that data security and data protection are also observed within the new solutions. You are the bridge between application developers and system integrators, given the increasing volume of complex, rich data that requires special handling.
Business informatics has to do with information systems in business, society and administration. The main goal of the discipline is to understand information systems within the context of their application while also considering implementation, usage and maintenance aspects and strategic opportunities for the company. Business informatics is the interface discipline between business administration, computer science and engineering.
At Volkswagen Group Services, students also meet dedicated business people, computer scientists and engineers at work, who are happy to pass on their knowledge during the work terms, thus offering the perfect complement to their studies. There are many areas you can learn from, such as business operations, IT project management or consulting.
