Your mission
Qblox is growing and we are on the lookout for a Junior Facility Manager.
Qblox develop high-tech control stacks for quantum computers, pivotal in generating the precise analogue signals necessary for the control and readout of quantum bits within quantum computing and networking environments. If you know what that means - fantastic! But if you have no idea - that’s great too! Not everyone that works for us is a Quantum Engineer.
Joining Qblox in any department means becoming part of a dynamic environment, where innovation thrives and every member of our international team makes a direct impact on our success. Lots of companies say things like that, but for us it’s actually true - we’re building Quantum technology that doesn’t yet exist.
To achieve our goals, we are rapidly scaling, which brings new challenges everyday. We have the goal to increase our team from 100 to 220 by the end of next year. This means that this role will change overtime becoming more broad and bringing different aspects of the craft of Facility Management.

But taking care of daily operations and ensuring our workplace runs smoothly isn't all glitz and glamour, contracts and service providers. As we grow and establish ourselves you will also need to get involved in some of the more practical, day-to-day elements - taking responsibility and getting things done.
