iL as an Employer
Why it's rewarding to be part of the iL team
Teamwork and mutual respect are integral to our culture. We highly value diverse responsibilities, opportunities for personal initiative, and a positive error culture.
We foster communication on an equal footing and address each other informally. We prioritize a work style that aligns with both our culture and your lifestyle, offering flexible working hours and the option to work remotely twice a week. On other days, we prefer meeting in the office to strengthen our collaborative spirit.


Among our benefits are a monthly company lunch, recreational activities, a subsidy for the Deutschlandticket, health days, and many other advantages.
Our company headquarters are centrally located in Heidelberg's Bahnstadt, a very modern and sustainable district – just a 10-minute walk from Heidelberg Central Station, offering diverse culinary options and green spaces nearby. For those who do not commute by public transport, we provide company-owned parking spaces in our underground garage at Speyerer Straße 4.
